Default Saw a clone of my car in DC today

WTF...

OK, I was riding my scooter around DC, and from about 2 blocks away I spot an ITR with Mugen wing on it. Freaking out, since mine is the only car that looks like that...but it wasn't mine.

It was slammed with OEM wheels, tints, and clear corners, and some Korean dude driving. Anyone seen this car? Really wigged me out...

The Mugen wing was a replica BTW. Any DC area folks know whose car this is, or own it?

Another R that bears a striking similarity to mine sort of piqued my curiosity...I'm terribly sorry.

I have seen the guy that Luis sold the wing to around Tyson's, that was definitely a JDM front. I had never seen this guy before, there was some sort of body kit on it as well.

What alarms and kill switches?

The only switches I have are for my hydraulics.

If you'd ever get your act together and get down here, we could be "Boys on a Bike".

Hurry up, sissy boy.

If you'd do something about your hair, like maybe a jheri curl, we could pass for Miami Vice.

Maybe in order to get you down here, I'll tell you there's some conference of BFFBB (Black Former Fraternity Brothers in Business). Would you be motivated enough to come down then?

Yack, it's funny you brought this up. Just the other day I was changing the susp'n on Pop's SI. Well, my 5 year old son and one of his little friends were outside with me. Michael's friend asked "What are you doing to that mini van??" "My dad never has to work on our mini van.." I almost fell over with laughter.

Ross, I'm sure his car was a little cleaner than yours..
