I usually get paranoid too in bad neighborhoods, so I usually park really close to where ever I'm going and stay by the window to keep a look out.

here in Atlanta, you actually see really nice cars in the bad neighborhoods, 20+ rims yada yada, and ppl paying 3 mortgages <on the cars>

I get paranoid parking my OLD Lexus in a poor area. There's just too many haters in this world. I understand being down on your luck isn't enjoyable, but how does inconviencing someone else make YOUR life better? God, I hate stupid people... I really, really hate them.

Bad things can happen just about anywhere. Recently, a kid tried to key my RX in the parking lot of an upscale mall (some security eh), but my cousin caught him and the result was obvious.

Simple solution. Get a Rotwiler and leave him in the car when you have to go on these "errands".

there is a big joke at my work here in So Cal, if you want to buy a foreclosed home in a year or 2, just follow the Hummer H2's home, sounds like Lexus is the same in bad neighborhoods.

We call those people FB or FU%&ED BORROWERS. They took a bunch of equity out of their homes to buy stupid items and got suicide loans like Adjustable Rate Mortgages and Intrest Only Mortgages, they are going to be in a WORLD of hurt in 2 years....

Maybe I am missing something here but you drove YOUR Lexus to the Ghetto property YOU own and are complaining that you didn't feel safe?

Maybe sell the property and that way you don't have to enounter this issue.

I got a ghetto pass like Denzel Washington in Training Day. But shoot even I don't cash that in monthly

Hahaha, When I had my old car I was just scared to drive it ANYWHERE remotely ghetto. I would even refuse to drive to MONTEBELLO. HAHAHAHA. Or El monte even.

But with the IS...man..it has seen places. I went to LA (a block from Crenshaw) quite a few times to do some things. Plus Got my window tinted, right outside of Ktown at Songs Tint Masters. Been there a couple of times.

Although I'm still paranoid on where I go. I still pick my places "carefully"

Aw, come on Ray... that "place" near Crenshaw you went to wasn't that bad... stop being such a wuss! j/k

Now that I think about it, the people that live near "that place" probably think Manuel made a new friend with a GFM IS350, since our cars look almost identical

HAHAH probably.

Ok, I admit, it's not THAT bad. Considering I see all the "BALLAS" there. I told you last time I was there I saw a Champagne E55 AMG? hahaha. It has New York plates.
