spotted a blue 8 on lwr Heidelberg Rd, Heidelberg this afternoon about 5pm. Waved hello, smiled and pulled up beside me and chatted! Had about 10000km on it and loves it.

Got a wave from a red one in Grenoble St. The Gap Q. 29/01 0655h. I was on my road bike doing my morning constitutional.

Did you recruit him to the rx8club? I think everyone of us should do this. This is a fun site.

mboptom

no, didn't get much time, lights turned green and we were already holding up mega traffic - funny no one blasted their horn at us, probably in shock at seeing two 8's next to each other at the front of the line (where else would they be?)

takahashi

Yeah... saw another one today with a new rego plate (titanium grey going at Monash Freeway towards Dandenong/Warragul.

I was not in my RX-8 (for once) so he did not spotted me

So I did not give the details of this site either. I was wearing the cap though :P

mboptom

Nice cap takahashi, "where do ya get it?"

And how do you put that pic there under your name??

mboptom

wow! I've just looked at your web site - very cool!

I won't even begin to ask how you did all that...I loved your reports on the test drives of the other cars.

Now I know what your 8 looks like I'll keep a watch out for you. You must be around my area a fair bit, I drive to Dandenong dayly from Glen Iris.

takahashi

Hey.... I will see you more in the weekends.

I live in Berwick now. Travelling in a Camry to Taralgon to work. It is ok. I love driving.

Website thanks for your kind comment, my wife like that too only when I stop designing it ... I love designing website. step-hen.com has been my personal site for years. This is the new .... fourth version. I am now planning to do once a year revision. I learn all my skill from sites, reading books in Boarder's, testing. As I am more into flash now. Next one - you guest it will be flash.

Then again all my kids will be in trouble. They will have a site set up my his old man and hopefully continue on as a life journey.

Cost? How about US$19 per month. 4 pack of cigarrette or something. I don't smoke so there you go!

The picture is an avatar - go to user/cp and edit your profile. Upload your customised avatar and there it is!

vel red 8 spotted today at 8.45am going south on Bourke Rd, just at Monash freeway entrance. I turned in front of you & nearly missed spotting you but managed a quick wave as I flew round corner.

Just back home after 3 days driving Sydney's north, east and inner-west suburbs, the only 8 I saw was Ric Shaw's, outside his works. (What a friendly, obliging, knowledgeable fellow he is.)

Then lo and behold, near home and 350 km from Sydney, a winning blue near Nowendoc on the Bucket's Way, heavily camouflaged in a bra. that was at 4.45 thisafternoon.

Just picked up my red 8 last Thursday. Spotted Velocity Red near McCarr's creek in Kuringai Chase National Park Sunday pm. Flashed my lights and got a wave in reply . Anyone owning up?

Saw a Titanium Gray last night at around 11pm Going towards Rockdale on Southern Cross drive.

takahashi

Spotted a red RX-8 in the city on SUnday... he did not wave back but covered his face --- anyone missing his/her RX-8?

I could have spotted a car theft!

I hit the quinella today, having been about 2 weeks since I've seen another I saw 2 today.

Yellow turning only Henley Marine Drive around 7am
Silver in Market street near Pitt around 2pm

Sadly didnt get a wave back either time (Although I do forgive the Silver driver as I was a pedestrial .... D'Oh)

I just wonder how many of us will wave back to a ped waving?
I will just yell out :D I am NOT a cab!:D

timbo

Saw a new black one in Canberra yesterday - not pepe. We both waved and grinned (but then what else is there to do in Canberra? )

Choppy

So many people are rude..

i was driving down to the datacenter in north ryde with the van ( cant fit servers in the back of the 8) i stopped right next to a yellow, i said " Its a mighty fine car, to look at and to drive " The reply i got was ' How would you know how it feels to drive. I replied with " I own one " He replied " You wish " and took off.

I do not hesitate to talk to anyone that asks me about the car, this and that, instead of acting like a too cooool for school tool like some others.

Sorry guys just needed to fume alittle

Regards
Phillip

Choppy remember those number plates.

And 1 day when you are in your 8 you will find yourself next to him at a set of lights and when that day comes the rest is history.
