No kidding, the 8's starting to pop out everywhere I go; most of the car I've seen on the road still bare no license plates. And driving the 8 is adicting. I saw a red on the 605N around 2:30p last Satursday while coming back from Santa Ana. Wonder who can that be.

hahaha.. no wonder. I had 4 cars this past weekend honking at me, or flashing their lights.. but since they weren't driving a 7 or 8, I thought something was wrong with my rear end. Later, as I pulled by the side of the offramp, the guy behind me drove next to my car, rolled down their window, and said "Nice Car".. I was like.. oh ok.. Thought something was wrong.
