Age doesn't matter... We all have something in common to talk about.
I'm not sure if I'm going to make it out. I have a wedding to go to Sat night :D
Plus I have to get the car ready for her road trip by Friday the 30th.

apaul, I'll probably cave in and order my small wish list later this week. As for the stakes on the yellow. I haven't seen one personally, so I can't comment. The best suggestion is to find a willing fellow 8 driver to pop their's off and onto yours to see if looks good :D .

Hybrid-8, Here be the info. What time you get there, I would love to check out your ride. Barry raved about the work he did. What's your take on Canzoomer? I think their the cheapest place for the accessories I'm looking at (strakes and clear corners).

Canzoomer quote:
F151-51-120C clear side marker right................................$ 37
F151-51-130C clear side marker left..................................$ 37
F152 V4-300F Side vent strakes bright polished finished....$273
Fedex shipping.......................................... .....................$ 9

Subtotal, goods & services: $356
Handling fee 2.5% x $356 = ...........................................$8.90
Subtotal, goods & services: $364.90
GST 7% x $364.90= .................................................. $ 25.54
Total:............................................ ...............................$390.44

TIME: 1:00PM
LOCATION: Dave & Buster's (Hwy 7 and 400)

Thanks, hope to check out some 8s there...

Are people going to show up on time for a change???

Or will it be the RX-7 owners first?? :D

Lates,

P.S. I'm with MyRxBad regarding the age. We're all relatively young anyways...

Pete, man, your ride has some sort of negative karma or something. I hope things get better for you. How is the incident with Prima Mazda going?

Thanks for the picture apaul. Good to meet you, pete, rotorwheee,cubakid, saint75 and hobbes. Next time we will have to do a tailgate or maybe a cruise through haloburton when the colours are out. Let's stay in touch.

It was great meeting you all. I was glad to finally see other Ti Greys out there.

apaul - perhaps you could set up an account at Yahoo.ca to load up photos. That's where I uploaded ~80 pictures that my wife took from the last meet. Yahoo shrinks them though, but it gets the job done. There's also a great free photo editing program from Photo editing program it's easier than Adobe Photo Shop. I call it my quick and dirty photo editor :D . BTW, I told my wife about the perception that you had of me. She's just said that I was old when she met me, and since we've been married, I get younger. It?s not the age, it?s what you do with it, that?s what I believe.

rotorwheee - You're custom licence plate looked great. Perhaps you should patent it and make your million $. Just don't forget us little guys when you do.

neo - RX8 drives always come late? No, everyone else just comes too early. All 8's come just in time...it's just their own sense of time. Have fun at the Niagra Drive, may be next year I'll join you guys. I can only imagine what the OPP is going to think when they see you guys buzz by. Take pics, show us what we'll miss.

Saint75 - Ah fellow Ti-Grey with slight blemish, like I. Sucks I know, but it's car after all. When you get the prices for the ?unnecessary? accessories, let me know. BTW I forgot to ask you if you wanted a tint referral? Actually I can't remember if your car had tints or not :p , thus I'm asking you now. BTW which MDG do you work at?

Cubakid - I hope I got the name right if not..oops. Glad to see a woman driver. My wife asked me that question before and I really don?t know why there aren?t that many female driver out there for the 8. She loves driving it and doesn?t see why anyone wouldn?t it (Yes, that?s right she drives the 8, I know some of you are probably staring at the screen with your mouths open, why? She?s more aggressive behind the wheel than I, there?s F1 driver blood in her )

Pete ? Dang, saw you drive away, saw you drive back, but never got a chance to meet you. You?re yellow 8 looked great!

To everyone else that I didn?t get a chance to meet, talk to you next at the meet. If you want to look at photos from the June 19th meet, there's a link from my signature that will take you there.

hobbes: You're so right about the 'age' thing. There was/is a funny thread going on somewhere here re: what makes you feel old.. Thanks for the reminder about Irfanview. Isn't it amazing that it's still freeware! I had it installed on my old PC (MDG- Saint 75!) with Win 98 SE, but forgot to download it with XP Pro on the current one. (MDG again!) I will also check out Yahoo. I do have an email account.. though it's likely dormant by now. Saint 75 is kindly resizing them for posting. Many thanks! Cheers!

Saint75- that's super. Did you receive the second batch? Hotmail used to offer this as a free service and then MS began charging for space last fall ..typical
