Anyone else notice that every second car on the road in this city is an Infiniti? I walked to the bank on 8th ST and 7th Ave SW and on the way (in just 7 blocks) I saw:

2 2003 G Sedans
1 Other V35 G Sedan
1 2007-2008 G Sedan
1 G35 coupe
1 G37
1 M35x
1 FX35
1 j30
1 QX

There were probably more before I started counting too.

^^If there are so many, why aren't there more Calgarians on this board? Snooty oilmen I figure.

If my boss is reading this, I'm just kidding!

Yes, it's surprising actually. LOTS of them around, I guess to most people it's just their car, they are not 'enthusiasts' as it were.

Seriously though, I see far more BMW's on my drive to and from work than I do Infiniti's. I usually see eight Bimmers to 3 or 4 G's.

This morning for fun, I counted G's on my way through the parkade at work. I got to eight before I got to my spot.

Oh yeah, can't swing a dead cat without hitting a Bimmer. I'm almost always parked next to at least one...or one parks next to me.

Christian, are you planning to bring your camera? I can bring one, it's just not as good as yours. I can bring a tripod, which I also know you have.

I can bring it if needed, shots in the dark aren't going to be magical with the pop up flash anyway...unfortunately.

I've got a decent camera, tripod, and flash. I'll bring that along. I might not be there right at 7:00 but I'll be there ASAP.

I'll be there. The simplest route from Hwy 2 might be to turn West on 16th Ave, go all the way across and turn right on Uxbridge Drive, just after you cross University Drive NW. I don't live up there so if anyone else has better directions, post up.

If you're free and have other wheels, c'mon out anyway, Luke. Or PM me where you live and I'll pick you up.

EDIT: or call me if you like at 813-7478
