My Ride: 08 550 Carbon Sport Almost everything factory, but no sound upgrades.
Default

I saw a black (maybe carbon) DINAN 550 sport in the Publix parking lot in East Cobb County, GA yesterday. He cruised by while I was parked in my new black (competition) MINI, so he paid no attention to me .

Was my first live sighting of a DINAN E60.

WOW!

Which Publix was it? Was the one on Johnson Ferry Road in East Cobb? If so, that's about 5 minutes from my house. We're there all the time and I have never seen the car.

I know exactly where it is. I live about 1 mile east of Johnson Ferry on Upper Roswell Road. Been there 13 years.

The real question... Did it have Cobb tags, or was it registered in Forsyth or some other remote county to avoid taxes... I crack up when I'm in Fulton and most of the really nice rides are all registered out of Fulton to avoid their taxes...

I could not see the tag from m angle. Cobb is only 6% so it may have been at home.

Heh. A stroll through Buckhead or even around Phipps would show that!
