Default Carded a 40th

Had my mom'* car yesterday so I had to pick her up from work.
She works at the mall part-time for extra money to enjoy in her retirement.
Anyway, down the aisle from where i park I see a 97 (ddn't know it was for sure at that time) white SSE. Then I see the kid (guy, whatever) get in. I rush down to card him and as I approach I notice the 40th badge
This was the first white 40th I have seen.
So anyway I gave the guy a card and told him how much I love his car. Hope he checks us out...we'll see.

I didn't know they made the 40th in white, i always thought they were all in that crimson tintcoat color. I actually spotted a 40th SSEi at Northern Illinois University last weekend but didn't card it because it was kinda beat and i figured they really wouldn't have any interest.

I didn't know that either. Unless it was an imposter, but he didnt look the type. Maybe he bought it that way though? :?:
It was in prett decent shape though. I would have taken a pic but since he was right there it didn't seem appropriate..
