Help Finding Orange Pea**** with Sweet Silver C GT

Hey Guys (this is a bit tongue and cheek.)

This concerns the owner of a Silver Carrera GT in Manhattan Beach, South Bay area of California.

So, I work out at the Equinox in Manhattan Beach/El Segundo. (I typically do not work out there; my Equninox of choice is the one in Palos Verdes which I usually go to in the morning.) Last night, I spotted the subject dude -- let's just call him dude. He was in his late '50s early '60s in great shape (he was ripped like beef jerky, not big). It may have been the lights, but I swear that dude was Orange, like an umpalumpa, the result of a bad spray tan. Dude had it going on: Dude sported the too cool eyeglasses: you know the ones where someone takes a perfectly good set of sunglasses and puts clear prescription lenses in. Dude had a tank top and those almost too tight dolphin shorts slit at the side. (Dude may have also been sporting a gold chain with the Italian horn.)

Anyway, dude is that prototypical Older guy that every gym has. You know him: the guy who spends more time chatting up the girls than working out; the guy who greets every smoking hot chick in the gym.

Well, I have no problem with that guy; any dude who is still swinging for the fences at that age is okay in my book.

But I do have a problem when Orange Dude becomes Orange Pea****; That is Dude who wants everyone to look at him and see how great he is.

Let me explain: so dude finishes his "work out." He gets a drink at the cafe; he is playing some young girls at the counter. I see him there when also grab an after work out drink. I walk out of the gym and there is a sweet, clean CGT. Mind you, the front of the gym is a fire lane -- not a parking spot. CGT had its engine and lights on, but nobody in the car. Some dumb *** left the car on, keys in the ignition and ready to rolll.

So, I go into the parking lot and hop into my GT-R. I wait to see who owned the CGT. Guess who: Orange Dude. I swear to you that Orange Dude played it out: walked slowly out of the gym, made sure everyone saw him, and before he got into the driver seat, looked around to make sure everyone some him. I cracked up as I drove by him.

Please -- if someone knows Orange Dude, please out him. I would love to meet him in person.

If I wasn't running b-ball tonight, I would be on the hunt for Orange Dude.

There can't be that many CGTs in the South Bay, specifically, Manhattan Beach (I realize Manhattan Beach has many Laker, Dodgers and Clipper players living in the area and one of them may own a CGT -- but they are not Orange dude.)

I have seen various "orange dudes" at the gym but none drive a CGT or a Porsche for that matter... most drive beat up large Lexus or a Vette if not a truck or a beat up Honda... sorry can't help
