SLR sighting
I was driving north on the 405 today when I saw a SLR vert up ahead of me. I tried catching up to it and was pushing about 85 when he gave a little burst of speed and in seconds was a 1/4 mile ahead. I finally got up besid and behind enough to snap a quick cell phone pic. What a beautiful car!

Great pic! Especially while driving!
I spotted one on the way to a (what else?) soccer game on the George Bush Tollway. My excitement got the chastizing of the wife and child, who were attempting to nap during the trip! Unfortunately, I'm not as adept at driving while manipulating my cell phone camera. Needless to say, I would have had to shoot quickly!

Seeing an SLR in YOUR post is about as close as I'M likely to come to seeing an SLR . . . .

How about that! The sticker said $512K . If I owned it, I wouldn't let anyone even touch it. Never did get o drive it but I did drive the C63, E63 and SL63 that day. I really like the C. This SLR was outside too.
Here's all the pics I took that day... http://s512.photobucket.com/albums/t321/hightechstuff2/?start=0
