In the parking lot ...

They parked next to each other today:

There's quite a bit of other eye candy in this parking lot as well. A few Astons, a Fisker, a 430 CS, a few Bentley CGTs, and Porsche's seemingly everywhere.

Aside from the odd trees present in Brooklyn, I wonder how many would be left tomorrow?

Was it a "Gold in my Sachs" parking lot?

Those are the standard wheels.

Wow, looks like I have to update my preferences. I haven't been in Brooklyn for 6 years.

I currently live in Westchester, and that pic is from the parking lot of the hedge fund I work at in Connecticut.

The parking lot next door (the main building) is considerably more impressive however with a couple of Astons, a Fisker, more than a handful of Bentley CGTs, Porsches everywhere including a track-prepped GT3 that gets daily driven, the 458 in the photo usually parks in that lot, a Maybach, and a Gallardo occasionally.

Although I'd probably pick Ferro, or Bianco Avus, Grigio Silverstone fits the FF so well in my opinion!

The Maybach is a chauffeur situation. Most of the Bentleys, Maseratis, and Astons appear to be a simple status thing as are almost all of the Porsches save the GT3 and a lowered 996 Turbo that appears to have been track-prepped and that runs tires in the summer I can't believe are actually street legal.

On top of the two Ferraris in the photo, there is a 430 Scud (nero, no stripe) that I mentioned earlier and a California. That said, I think the California was traded in for the FF as I haven't seen it since the FF hit the lot. Except for the Maybach (CEO), I have no idea who owns the other cars as I've amazingly never actually been in the lot when the owners are getting in/out of their cars and I've worked here for 4 years now.

Side view is a bad angle for the FF, no doubt.

Take this scene, multiply it by 500 across the country at other hedge fund and mutual fund offices.

Ah, so THAT'S what happened to my mutual fund contributions! :/
