**Official - FX's spotted**

I was in the Corolla. Yeah the rain and hail was crazy I got off the 523 exit though. Right before the traffic started. Thats where I saw you too. Passed you on the right :smug:
 
That's what I thought. Kind of pointless since most ppl will know the make of the car. Lawyers and their laws.....
 
It's commonly referred to as "Greeking" (at least it is in the entertainment industry). Most commercials, tv shows, and movies do not show companies' logos unless they pay/are paid to do so. For example, if someone is wearing a shirt with a Nike logo in a commercial for another product, Nike can make the claim that those advertisers were using Nike's reputation, etc to help promote or sell the advertised product. And many lawsuits have been filed on this basis. The advertiser/producer will use black gaffer tape (or whatever color the background is) and tape over the logo or a portion of it to "Greek" it out. It's the same thing with car emblems, cuz Infiniti is clearly not the manufacturer of that car chamois!
 
Spotted a black 2gen with black wheels. Was it you Sydney? It was in Bothell on Lake City Way. If it was, then I'm having a lucky streak, second iS member in a week!!

Was in Chicago over the weekend for a trade show and spotted six different 1st gens - all unmodified. In Seattle you can go a couple weeks and not see an FX. Go Chicago!
