Well,YOU were not driving ANY of those new 911 Porsches, so who can we call a dufus. At least they had a fun day.

Thought popped into my mind as well.

It is a bit shocking that they went back to the "round" lights on the 911s after everyone complained about the 996. Then they fixed the shape of the lights for the 987 boxster and cayman, and now, it looks like they've given the 911 the lights from the boxster and cayman.

Touche! I was thinking a drive around LA ending up in Beverly Hills would be a fun day.

Also, they are 'M' (Manufacturer) plates, so they are owned by either Porsche, another OEM or a Tier 1 or 2 supplier. Said 'dufus's' were being paid to drive those cars. What made them all Dufus's? The fact they were autos? Driving style? Jealousy?
