Well, In the past two years in Florida, I saw two M Coupes, a black one, and a blue one. On a trip to NY six months ago I saw a black one. And I saw one more today in St. Louis where I currently reside. Thats 4 coupes in 2 years. I think it has a lot to do with the fact that you are in Palo Alto and there tons of people with lots of money looking to spend it in various different ways.
