Default Christian Morton on his LS 460

I was looking through a Forbes article on football players and their rides, and I came across this one which really surprised me:

Player: Christian Morton
Position: Cornerback
Team: Denver Broncos
Cars: 2003 Land Rover Range Rover; 2005 Bentley Continental GT; 2006 Land Rover Range Rover Sport; 2007 Lexus LS 460

Comment on the LS: "I wanted to get a Mercedes S550 because everyone was talking about it, but then I realized I didn't want to be like everyone else. I take what they say and research for myself."


Props!

Nice to see some car guys out there, instead of those who just snap up a Range Rover, Ferrari and S550 just because it's standard fare.

I've seen one in Watertown, MA. I wanted to chase after it and get a better look but all I could make out was the blue "h" and the 600.

surprisingly I've seen a lot of 600hL's within the past few months. More than I expected.

Cool excerpt.
