Had my first RX-8 sighting today...saw a *gorgeous* blue one sitting in the parking lot of the Burlington Mall (Guelph Ln and Fairview). I don't have to guess who it belongs to...rotorian...it looked great!!

I noticed a crappy tercel type car parked beside it pretty close...you should adopt my psychotic parking approach...all the way out to the farthest reaches where no one EVER parks. It is a longer walk, but you'll never see a door ding, ever. Plus you get some exercise!

 

Canada, I went down to Philipsburg yesterday and through montreal (thanks again for doing the tire thing). I saw a yellow RX8 in Dorion on the way.

that might be me u are looking at..
do u live around tri-cities area too?

I do. Does the story at the link I posted sound familiar?

 

I haven't seen any yellow ones yet, though that must be spectacular, just a red one in the dealer's service garage and two Titanium Grays on the road.

I went cruising downtown Montreal last night. Got many thumbs up, smiles and nods. Never would have goten that response in my old car, a Protege 5. One guy in a souped-up Subaru wanted to race. Number one, the speed limit was only 50 Km/hr; number two there was too much traffic, and number three my motor has not been broken in yet). So I politely declined!

 

Wise decision Canada... plus the fact that you haven't had the car long enough to know it well.

 

I was waiting for ZoomZoom at Arizona's on Saturday night. The light was poor, but I saw an RX-8 drive slowly down a lane beside the parking lot... the car looked red, but I assumed it must ZoomZoom (his car is blue) and it was just the light playing tricks on me... not 10 seconds later Zoom showed up in his blue car. Man, we almost had three RX8's together at one time... the red one was gone before we could flag him back...

 

Remember you were having problems with your contacts that night.

 

To Amur_

then why at ur info u said u live in ontario?

 

Is it the "tri-cities" that confuses you? That is how the area where I live is referred to. Kitchener, Waterloo and Cambridge are end-to-end-to-end. Your own profile doesn't give a location at all, so there was nothing to say to me that you don't live here.


So, where do you live, then?

 

Saw a sliver 8 in the Rattray Marsh area of Mississauga. Parked in a driveway across from the lake. First one I've seen that hasn't been on a dealer lot. Belong to anyone on this forum?

 

hahaha the tri-cities u talking about it at the east~
the one i am tlaking about is at other side of canada ( the west side)~~
hahaha

 

i saw on tuesday night in scarborough .... a really nice looking blue on on lawrence near birchmount ...... and a silver one later that night on progress, didnt get a good look cause he drove in the opposite direction
saw a red one a couple weeks back near town center, looked nice as well

damn i want one

 

I saw a yellow 8 on HW 640 just north of Mtl this afternoon... anyone from here? It was very nice and the windows were quite tinted... was it stock?

 

I saw a red one going north on Glen Erin at Folkway in Mississauga about 6:00 Friday evening. Anyone from the forum?

 

A friend of mine was driving in his Civic the other day and saw a yellow RX-8 here in Van! He also said he greeted you along wif a "Nice car!" liner! Any chance of you being here at this forum?

 

we live in Mississauga in Lorne Park and have had our tit gray GT 6 spd w/ sunroof since mid-August so maybe it us you saw in Rattray Marsh. By the way we have never seen another 8 except at the dealer. Where do all of you drive? And when is the next get together, I want to talk gas mileage, if it doesn't improve we may have to go Nissan on Oct 1.

 

Westie, I'm positive it was a silver one I saw at Rattray Marsh and not a tit gray. It was parked in a driveway at a house facing the lake (no house across the street blocking the view of the lake). My wife said she say a silver one also at the Clarkson GO in one of the reserved spots. Anyone here?

I have not got my car yet but it just came in on Friday. Some of my accessories are backordered until Sept. 18th. I'm trying to sell my 96 Probe GT and until I do, I'm going to hold off taking possession of the 8. At least until all the accessories are installed.

 

Seen a red 8 last night on the 401 going home. Pulled up beside him in my 7 but he didn't look over.

Anyone know him?

I've seen:
Yellow #2 and Townline in Oshawa
Silver in subdivision in Pickering Village (Ajax)

 

Yellow would be mine. It's got tinted windows, spoiler, mud flaps, and a bulldog looking out the back window at you.

Only other ones I know of in the Durham region are Ron Jeremy's black one, and a red one that's getting dressed up by the owner of the Whitby Mazda dealership.

 

Saw a blue today on Dundas just west of Erin Mills this morning..

 

Saw a red one today northbound on Appleby Line at Hwy. 5 in Burlington at 5:30 p.m. I tried to get his attention but he didn't look over. Anyone on the forum?

 

Saw 73JPS on the road last night at 10pm. 73JPS's
car was spotless. As for mine...... I'm waxing it today

 

Damn, man... I thought yours looked really good...I didn't notice it was dirty.

I am liking that spoiler alot. If you hadn't been going home after work I woulda hijacked ya for a beer or something. I had just finished having some wings with ZoomZoom.

Pete, you're workin' too hard... too late, at least lol! Anyway, good to meet you.

 

Beer would've been great , but i just finsihed 4 day of a 12 hour shift and was exhusted. We need to put together another meet before the white stuff hits.
