Default Toyota Owners Take Over So Cal Streets!

ORANGE COUNTY - Times

With virtually every Nissan owner in So Cal attending the Performance Nissan event at Duarte HS, Toyota owners are claiming the streets of Southern California as their own. Camrys, Corollas, Pathfinders, and MR2s have been seen cruising the local hangouts (usually dominated by Z's, G35's, Altimas, and Maximas) during the morning hours of March 20th.

"Usually we just sleep in on Saturdays" said an unamed Camry owner, "because the 2003/2004 Nissan and Infinity lineup is just so intimidating. But we have been looking forward to this morning for about a month now." When asked what his plans were for today, he stated that he will be crusing PCH between Main Street and Warner until noon, and then going back to bed. "My back can only handle a couple hours in the seat, before I need to take a break".

In a unrelated story, Police and Sherrif departments have noted a significant decrease in speeding tickets issued during the same time period. "I'm not sure why the decrease", said Sherrif spokesman Bill Brending as he sipped a caffe latte, "but we do appreciate the break".

----

Since I couldn't make the event, I'm looking forward to seeing the pics as soon as you all get back.

Scaf.

That's right ( Air Bag Suspension ) - The car was Sano - inside and out..

For me I like steel in my suspension.. Having a "Flat" at speed might mess up your day...

Cheers Amy -
