Toyotas Dominating Downtown L.A. !!!

[Yaris Revenge]

I just got back from a week-long trip out to downtown LA. Being the car fanatic that I am, I did a lot of car watching while walking around (which was basically my whole trip), and lemme tell ya, Toyota is kickin' ass and takin' names down there. I saw many a Yaris sedan, and maybe 4 liftbacks. The new Camry was frikkin' EVERYWHERE. I'm not joking! If I looked up the street, there was a new Camry. If I turned the corner, there was a new Camry. At a traffic light, I'd be passed by 2 new Camrys. Very, very, popular.

The only other car brand that gave them any competition was BMW. Couldn't tell ya which ones... they all look the same to me, but they were all over the place. Chevrolet seemed to have the weakest statistical standing.

Another interesting note was the color choices out on the street. Silver was the overwhelming color of choice, followed immediately by black, with navy blue coming in 3rd. Very few white or red, and practically none of any other color.

BTW, if anyone's considering downtown LA for vacation, don't waste your time. That place is so dead the burger joints lock up at 5 in the afternoon, and don't open at all on the weekends! Nearly starved to death after dark.

(My wife was there on business, I was just along to keep her out of trouble! )
