That's rare. I don't think I ever met another V while driving.

Most Vs are so far behind in my mirrors that I can neither confirm nor deny their V bloodline. ButMoSeriously, I have seen maybe 30 Vs in the past five years, they are a rare breed, which is why we like them.

Live in CSprings, work in Sunrise, yeah I hit it a few times a year, no real section for Vs to park, but we find each other when we are there.

I also went to the L.A autoshow, and I also ran into the black V with black wheels right there next the the L.A autoshow. The guy kept doing burnouts while we were driving near there. He is a tattoo artist.

I actually see V's all the time, usually around my job in Scottsdale. See one at least once a week. I just got used to it, took me awhile though since they're so rare.

I've only seen two Vs on the road in the last 4 or 5 years...one of those has been mine and the other was several years ago in a small town. Other than meeting up with a few V's at the track and seeing the Hennessy V in Houston at Coffee and Cars, I haven't seen very many in person.

Back when i used to live in chicago i ran into a V almost everytime i went near downtown, and there were 2 that i ran into in my daily commute. Maybe thats just chicago lol but to me my car seemed a bit rarer, until the summer came :/ or a cavalier flew past real fast lol
