Of course I was sitting at a stop light and it had the green so it didn't bother me at all. All I could think was geeze someone's stock is still doing well.

Then I turned left, went the opposite direction and thought about all I could do with the $100K I saved.

It is a pretty cool car though, till you put the hardtop on it. Yuk.

Did make an S8 feel silly for trying to tailgate however, but that wasn't very hard at all.

I know the owners of the S8 and the Z8. The S8 was a silver with light gray interior, right? The owner kinda looks like Arvydis Sabonis of the Blazers. Big head, thick eye brows. He thinks his S8 can kick M5 ass and he's barely modded.

The Z8 was driven by a dude who's 29. Sold his company to Micron at the peak of the tech boom. He's a customer at this smoothie place that I go to often and sometimes brings his car to the store. Cool guy.
