I see lots of them all the time--but usually not when I have my camera. Here is one from the Scion Nationals last year:

The only good thing about those wraps is that the paint should be safe underneath all that vinyl!

That one actually isn't as bad as some I've seen. There is two around here that are flower delivery vehicles. They have flowers all over them, I'll have to take a pic.

I think I saw you yesterday morning.. nice haircut dude.. I like that split in the middle look..
to some extent i do live the initial d lifestyle. i deliver food (italian food) with my tc for catered parties. and every friday and monday i drive to and from alleghany county which is in the foothills of the applachian mountians which is like my own mt. akina. now i don't have super human driving skills but i do also tend to daydream and have a vacant expression on my face. and no, my hair is not parted down the middle, it is either spiked up or under a hat.

There are quite a few running around town here:

Radiators.com has a wrapped box and deliver parts to my job. One of our customers has a camo box and uses it to deliver kegs because he owns his own brewery. No wrap just vinyl logo. And there is the Circuit City black and neon green firedog box. And some company affiliated with Clear Channel Augusta has a white box all wrapped up and ugly.

I need to start carrying around my camera.

Mmm Wing Stop. oh heck no, they wasted a RS3 for that? BOO!! I saw a xB Taxi a few weeks ago. It was BOP on the bottom and yellow on the top. I've seen other xB Taxis that are RS2s. Which again is a waste.

If seen flower delivery, deli delivery, caterings, etc... All around town. I would say that 75% of the xB's sold here are later changed to delivery cars. Some of them are kinda cool looking, but most of them are just a waste.
