Just saw a red R3 that re-established my faith in humanity

At the intersection of Upper Middle and Grand in Oakville, they gave me the high beam flash, i honked as i made a left past them.

Cheers!!

Well hopefully it gets me on the show. So far, it plus my active posting on the bullrun site let me go to Manhattan and take the green flag with the bullrun cars doing the rally. That was awesome in itself

saw a WB today on the 404 north, you waved and i waved back! though i don't know if you saw me wave back cuz of my tinted windows, still have no idea how they look from the outside, just got them yesterday ^__^ (20% all-round ceramic tints)

I've seen your car parked elsewhere a few times too, but don't remember where.

ON TIG in Ham with tail light out

Yesterday in downtown Hamilton (approx. 5:35pm), driving North on John st. I noticed a TiG like mine turn ahead of me while I was at a red light. I instantly noticed the guy had a tail light out (passenger side) > Greetings and thumbs up aside it's time to help out a fellow rotorhead:

I had to goose it to get ahead of a bus and was able to get behind him and hop out of my car & run up to the side of his and let him know about the tail light. I Barely had enough time to give him props on the car and acknowledge a fellow TiG 8 driver

Twice I've been driving home on the Westbound QEW through Oakville and spotted a 2nd gen RX-8 in some weird beige-grey metallic color. I looked in the Mazda site for RX-8's but could not find that color. Is it a special?

Followed a red rx8 on Wednesday last week. in the Burlington/Oakville area.
Caught up to him heading North on Appleby, we turned east on Dundas then North again on Bronte. He pulled in to one of the shopping malls all there.
I gave him a friendly honk as I went which was nicely returned.

Saw another SS 8 in the parking lot of Home Depot in Ajax around 4:10pm today (had Gyro Mazda plate frame). I parked right beside it. Must be a lady driver as there was a pink cell phone case inside on the console. When I got out of the store it was gone.
