On the way home from work yesterday I stopped beside a 240D the same color as my 300D (manila beige) and gave a thumbs up and waved while we were stopped. Rolled down my window to have a quick chat but his light turned green (left turning lane) so had no choice but to take off.

Was able to grab a photo as I had my camera out but didn't turn out great since I was in a hurry.

saw our twin today

Today i had to run over to Big-O to get a tire fixed. on the way back i was cutting through the residential neighborhood roads to avoid the down town traffic trying to get to the freeway so i could sit in the parking lot.

Iam zooming down towards the on ramp, and I see another 123 making a left turn onto the ramp. I catch up to him but there is another car between us. I finally get to the center lane and get up along side of him, toot the horn, get a thumbs up, and a wave from his wife. he has the same ivory 240D as we have, and is a local car by the license plate frame. never seen this 123 before.

It was kind of cool getting a thumbs up and seeing our twin.

Anyone that thinks a 240D is slow drives too fast.

We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics. Funny how that works
