I saw the FX50S on the way home! It is fast! I was driving a 26 foot Uhaul loaded with about 9,000 lbs of paper. As soon as the driver realized I was taking pictures he jetted! Sounded alot like my G35 sedan looked alot like the EX35.

Were you using a camera phone or did u have an actual camera with you? I know if that was my phone you wouldn't be able to tell what anything was! But you got some decent shots!

yeah thats camera phone one handed while keeping the 26 foot long Uhaul in its lane. I only got off 4 shots before he realized I was snapping pictures and then he was GONE! The FX50 is going to be FAST!

If he would have stuck around for a couple seconds I would have had camera phone video.

I do photography as a hobby. I've done a few weddings ect.

This is my favorate non camera phone picture... 90 feet in Belize meeting with a Green Moray Eel

Thanks SVT!

danielekfuj,

I'm not sure why the electrical taped the doors, headlights and taillights? It looks like a big EX35.

The most important thing is.... IT IS FAST! Like faster then my G fast! I bet the FX50 does 0-60 sub 5 seconds and 1/4 mile in 13.5 at 105 mph.

What kind of phone do you have that can take 2+ MP pics and has a shutter speed high enough to catch spinning rims, still?

Sweet! Is that a Michigan Plate? Kinda hard to read... I think this may be the new beginning of the G50.... Inquiring minds want to know!

Nice eye on the plate. It sort of does look like a Michigan plate, but judging by the big blob between the letters and numbers, I'd say Minnesota. Some Minnesota plates have the state in the middle. If it was a Michigan plate, that blob should be a D if anything (D=dealer plate).

Its not the tool its the skilled hands holding the tool

My phone is a Samsung A920 thats about 2 years old. It shoots 1.3 mega pixel pictures and 30 second video. Its also a MP3 player! I have a 512 mb mini SD card in it so it can hold a lot of pictures and music. Doctors wives get all the cool toys LOL

Heres a picture of it and the card.

Hmm, well that means it could only come from one of three places in the whole state. Will have to check out the dealership here.
