1. Saw the same Red RX8 that I have seen a few times on the York campus….this time it was parked across on Steeles ave (yesterday around 6PM)
2. Saw a nice shinny black RX8 in the parking lot besides the Track and Field centre (yesterday around 6:30)
3. Saw a blue RX8 on Hwy 7 and Islington (yesterday around 8:30)
4. Saw a nice Copper Red (like mine but w/ spoiler) this morning parked in the lot at the John St. and Mercer St. (across from Metro Hall)

Wow, saw so many RX8s on my way to London and back.

On my way there, saw a VR when i was on 403, right after i got on from main street in hamilton...

On my way back saw a BB and cruised with him for a while, then when i was back in mississauga area, on 401, saw another BB (without spoiler this time)...and if you are on this forum (the 2nd BB that i saw). YOU ARE SERIOUSLY A DANGEROUS DRIVER! it's people like you who cause the stereotype that 'all' sports car drivers are reckless. you DON'T CUT INTO THE SHOULDER LANE TO PASS OTHER CARS going at abt 140-150 km/h +!!!

Just dropped my brother-in-law at YYZ to catch a flight to LHR. 401 westbound, between 10 and Mavis, was surrounded by six (6!) 3's; all black like my 8.

I've seen a Phantom Blue 8 in fairview with a wing once, posted a picture of it on this thread a while ago. And another few here and there, very rare though (in comparison to the rest of the colors, but then again, stormy blue is pretty rare too from what i've seen)

Don't think any of those phantom blue guys are on the forums though

LOL!! But I don't think it would have made much difference if they did or didn't, since it's been raining so much these past few days. I wash my car quite often, but during these rainy days, there's nothing much i can do, it'll get dirty again once the car dries from the rain >=[ i dislike rainy days!

The exception to that is MY car Maffu...

it's remarkable what a difference it makes when you have several overlapping layers of NXT and Caurnauba wax... water slides off, doesn't stick when it dries.. and most importantly, to always drive at high speeds so all the water slides off.

When you have a lot of wax on your car and follow up with Meguiars Ultimate car detailer in between washes (this has a hydrophobic formula which prevents water from sticking), the car can still look quite good after several days of rain.

This type of maintenance is like having RAIN-X on your paint.

My car is proof it works...

Always keep these things in your trunk...

1) Meguiars ultimate quick detailer
2) microfibre cloth for the above
3) Stoner's auto glass cleaner
4) terry cloth for the above


Do not use microfibre for cleaning your glass, it will actually leave tiny strands of microfibre on the surface. Use regular 100% cotton terry cloth. Those won't leave anything behind.

On the same token, do not use terry cloth to wipe your car with quick detailer. It's not fine enough to deep clean and it will leave streaks on your paint. Use the microfibre also for the random bird **** that usually comes when you have a clean car.
