    A friend's neighbor's 12 year old took their parents' whip for a joy ride.  Didn't even make the first turn.



    he is not going to be ready for a drivers license til he is 20 if thats his best effort at 12, but then again theres no traffic and all that space to distract him

    Nothing like a trip to my dentist (not her's) to catch one in the wild.  She gave me some insights into the deep pocket owner (lease?) who periodically rolls these out.  Research to follow:

    While not exotic and maybe not even cool, I thought it was pretty neat. 


    I'm curious about that helmet symbol that shows up around the "V" in the middle.  I think you have some beer glasses with it too? Although those could be for something different, like Victory brewing.   

    Anyway, what are the origins of that, do you know?

    Definitely has kind of a gladiator/Roman vibe to it.

    Buddy of mine traded his '17 for a '23.  It's pretty sweet.  He needs to get 1500 miles on it for the computer to release the engine from 4k max RPM jail.  Has to do it before Aug. 8 or will be sitting out the one mile challenge at SORC this year.  Nice problem to have. 🙂

    I parked next to an Aston Martin DBX at Kroger earlier. That's a shite ton of money to spend on one of the most boring looking SUVs of the last 10-15 years. It's basically the step

    Not disagreeing with you, but it only looks like a Ford because Ford copied the AM grille. 🙃

    The return from the Montreal trip right there.  @GrateEggspectations looks like a lot of targets in the field of view.  Hopefully you got the run thru the gears up into three digit (mph) range outside the city.
    Beautiful interior-
    Better to be lucky than good right there.  That neighbourhood (nod) of yours is home to some sweet rides.

    @lousubcap

    I agree about the interior. Really nicely finished. I’ve offered to give it a thorough detailing one day soon, just for kicks. Didn’t take a long ride today, but we’re due for a good run in the coming weeks.

    @Ozzie_Isaac - perhaps you need to consider suggesting she throttle back til you acquire your SM grill (although that would be a rounding error in her orbit.) B)

    Oh she was just looking.  She knows it gets my goat.  For that $$ I would rather a Urus.

    Agree on the SM.  That is on hold since she bought me a Jeep for father's day.  (A deal in the works for a year with my dad, he built a brand new diesel, so I had the opportunity to buy his 2018.

    Still in the cards though!  Just delayed some.

    That's about as strange as the car I was following the other day.

    I generally try to avoid turning my car into one drivers want to take pictures of from the road, but maybe that’s just me.

    @WeberWho - you live in quite a place given your sightings posted here.  I have a pretty good idea of your locale thus I am always amazed by the broad spectrum of your sightings. Keep bringing 'em.

    @Ozzie_Isaac I am confident in generally knowing where you live.  I also suspect your wife (who hired you) works in the high dollar real estate business.  But dang-you likely could toss garage teasers every day given your sightings on the local roads.
    Rubbing it in is a worthy weekend hobby-
    Be well and all above in good fun!
