I love oakland haha hometown! I just hate the roads ever since I started driving my GS(technically my moms lol). I've managed to find alternate routes to avoid bumpers and potholes. I don't even have rims or a lower ride and damn these potholes/bumper kill me already!

spotted during the morning commute (~7:45ish) on CA-87NB before Taylor St, carpool lane:

2IS, SGM, lowered, dark tint, tinted tails, black rims... possibly the same car i spotted a couple of weeks ago...

i was in an inconspicuous white 2is with black roof as you passed by

you on here?

can anybody confirm that it was a 2IS that caught fire on 580 around Pleasanton during the morning commute? Firefighters couldn't get to the car because there was a gun and ammo and the ammo was going off because of the fire.

I saw the footage on KTVU at noon.

^^^ What color was it? If it's silver/TP, then I fear for brociouz. I think he's packing some heat in case of car jackers.

If it's an L-tuned IS300 it sounds like Albert.... He has led halos in his headlights.
