That's because they spend their time on the Cartaholics and Buggies Gone wild golf cart forums.

However, we did see two Porsche four door sedans (weird) and a sea of Prius cars trying to prove they could go as fast in traffic as our SRT's.

I see more and more of these Prius owners going over the speed limit every day...I guess they figure their driving it in the first place is good enough

Perhaps we in central FL, should have a GTG in the area of The Villages. High volume area may stimulate some locals....,besides, it's a nice drive up there this time of the year.

When my buddy in Huntington Beach wants to attract some attention, he drives his cherry red 59 Caddy convertible with the snow white interior up the beach highway to Dana Point. None of the extotics draw the attention that Cad does.

Anyone remember what Mark Wahlberg called Will Farrel's Prius in the movie "The Other Guys"? LOL My wife and I still joke about it when we see one on the road.

XF will always be around. Customize it and you will not feel "too common".
I am not seeing any white SRTs around my area.
