    3 LX's spotted - Mentor, OH

    On MercuryMarauder.net, they have a "sightings" section where you can post sightings in case they're a member of the site.

    Well, while driving to work today (10/20/09) between 2:45pm and 3:15pm, I spotted 3 LX's. It never fails...I always see Marauders while I'm in the Magnum, and LX's when I'm in the Marauder!!! Wish it was the other way around!!!

    Anyway, this is what I saw:
    1...SR-2 eastbound, near Heisley Rd. exit. Red Magnum R/T, black honeycomb grille with aftermarket badge, SRT wheels (I think - aftermarket at least), very clean. I was westbound and he was eastbound, so I didn't get an up-close look.

    2...SR-615 at Nowlen Street, right near Yours Truly restaurant. Medium silver/gray (I don't know Dodge trademark colors yet) Charger R/T. Looked like maybe a 2007-08ish, definitely NOT a 2005 judging by the fender badges and rims.

    3...SR-615 eastbound at US-20 (Mentor Av). SubLime Charger Daytona, clean as can be. Maybe an aftermarket exhaust.

    Also saw a handful of 300's but nothing very distinct; they were all rather plain looking. The 3 I just mentioned were very sharp and like the owners actually liked their cars.

    Anyone here?

    I don't recall seeing anyone on here from Mentor. If they are here, they have not spoken up in the past year

    I spotted a couple Maggies at the Great Lakes Mall last month when I was out there.

    One was a silver 6-banger with custom wheels (machined/black).

    The second was a very clean Brilliant Black R/T AWD with a Ohio State sticker (the large red "O") on the lower right corner of the back window.

    I think it had a 30 day tag on it. I left a flier on the window...I'm sure he would have said something about that to you

    I see a ton on LX's every day at work here in Highland Heights.

    But that's because we use the Magnum/300/Charger as company vehicles. They are all 2.7L's unless it is a managers car, then it's a 3.5L.

    It's TORRED or NOred!
