ZWinger? Cute, I think?! I just saw a CS on North Dutton in Santa Rosa leaving the bank today at 8:30 am. I waived from my office- as if they could see me!



I also raced a bit with a CS with a personalized plate (can't remember what it was) on North Bound 101 in Novato on Saturday. I waived but they kept taking off like they wanted to race.. it was an older gentelman and his old lady.

LS on 80E at the Gilman Exit in the carpool lane. Older guy with white hair. Spoiler. 4:57pm

It seems to me that most Z's I see on my commutes use the carpool lane, and I don't recall seeing passengers in most of these cars either....

Yesterday, Tuesday, saw a brand new DB in the parking lot at the Capitola Mall in Capitola, CA. It had a dealer paper plate from Alhambra and was driven by a young (20 something) Asian male. I was driving my beater ('69 Int'l. Travelall) so didn't get his attention.
