Default CGT Commuter car?

My wife and I had to go down to Monterey today and were amazed at the cool traffic on the road. In the morning we got passed by a Ferrari F40 on Highway 101, and coming home this afternoon, a fellow in a CGT passed us, in which I then passed him, etc. We were in the wife's Audi Allroad, and had the camera out, so she shot a few frames of the CGT. Anyone know who this fellow is?

Why the heck is the top on?? If you have a Carrera GT and a sunny day that seems almost too perfect to pass up!!

I like how in the last picture you have superimposed the audi rings onto the rear fender.

Damn that is a whole 'lotta car! That last picture really shows the car's business, the large wheels to fit the ceramic brakes (which to look 50% bigger than his head!), the brake and engine ducting, the engine cover popping up in the back, the raised spoiler and the wheel spindle locks.... words don't describe it.

Damn.

Looks like the same guy in the "Downtown LA" thread. In other words, he must work at a Porsche dealership. He's probably gone to grab some coffee.
