Red face Who stole my thunder? - Santa Barbara

My bf and his sister came to visit me in good ol Santa Barbara, and we decided to go to Spudnuts to get some late night coffee and snacks. I started talking about how awesome my 8 is, and how I haven't seen another one like mine in Santa Barbara (I have a velocity Red, sport 2007, with rear wing spoiler). I have seen a black one and a gray one awhiles back, but haven't seen them in the past couple months.
ANYWAY, as we leave the cafe, my bf comes walking towards my car and says, "hey look over there", and lo an behold there's a VR RX8, with rear wing spoiler.

So just curious, who else owns a red RX8 in the Santa Barbara area, and parked in the Carrows restaurant lot last night?

Hahaha..no no. After re-reading my original post, seems like I was a bit hostile. That wasn't the intention. I was just a bit disappointed to have been called out like that (after my convo about how "unique" my car is). Yes yes, I know, there are hundreds out there, but just not that common where I live, or so I thought.
I just wanted to see if the owner of the other VR 8 is on this forum........Sorry didn't mean to come off catty!!!

Note:
Did see a BB RX8 in the Calle Real marketplace the other day. NICE CAR!
