Look what I passed on the highway...SLR

I was heading South on Highway 5 in San Diego passing the Sea World exit form La Jolla and a Merceds SLR blows past me. I caught up to him in traffic and I was behind it and saw long blonde hair flowing over the seat. I started thinking it was a hot blonde movie star from LA...maybe Paris Hilton, even though I dont think shes hot but I know she has one...so anyway I finally pull up next to it and look over and guess who was behind the wheel............................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. ...........................................FABIO!! !!!!

I **** you not. For a brief moment I still thought it was a chick.

Anyway here is the best pic I could get using my camera phone. I was in the fast lane and he was in the slow lane getting off at the exit.

Hes ONLY driving an SLR. U woulda thought a BIG star like that would be driving at the very least a Ferrrari ....evn OUR own Motion has one of those Ferraris.

Jim Rome was talking about getting harrassed by "Corvette Guy" on his radio show. I guess he drives a SLR as well.

I love the look of the SLR and it looks even better in person but who the hell would buy a car like that since it only comes in automatic.
