    Default Not One But Two SOM G8 GT Sightings In Two Days

    So I've seen two SOM G8 GTs in two days, both of them different cars. Talk about rare beasts, I think only 900 odd SOM G8s were built total, and about 2/3 of them were GTs. To see two of them in Puget Sound back to back? WOW!

    First: Sighting on I-5 Southbound off of the Everett Broadway exit. We both headed southbound on Broadway, I was stuffed behind some slow driving morons and then came up on the G8 at the bottom fo the ramp. It is debadged on the rear and appeared to have non-factory rims with tinted, windows, we gave each other a thumbs up.

    Second: Sighting in West Seattle on California on Saturday about 3:30 PM. Car was parked near the husky, this one had no front license plate or holes even drilled for it, but had the rear badges. Had the factory 19" rims and windows tinted.

    Anyone here we know???

    I wish SOM had been a 2009 color, I would have gotten one in a heartbeat!
