Hey, a frind of mine from work a few weeks ago saw a yellow RX-8 on the road --- anyone here have a yellow one?

I am going to be there. I am getting an 8 as soon as I move my 10th anniversary TurboII If anyone can PM me with a local DFW dealer that is not trying to sell above MSRP and has a Titanium or Red base model 6 speed (should be around $28,200) PLEASE let me know. My wife may let me get an early jump and get it before if I can work it out with the dealership.

I've got a yellow one! I'm usually tooling around the Richardson/Plano area.

I have yet to see another RX-8 on the road.

It must have been you! I haven't seen any RX-8s out on the road yet either ...



My friend lives up around the Lewisville/Denton area, we both work downtown Dallas. It might have been the day you picked up your car ... do you remember driving by a black G35 coupe (that would have been him)? ... It's been busy, here at work, I haven't had a chance to get to talk to him and find out what road he saw the car on ... yet ...

Just so everyone knows you can bring your own beer. Of course we can only consume it while we are in the Cafe so that's a heads up.
They have really good hotwings. Eric and I are very fond of those!

Tony, you're not the same guy who was going to buy Chris' Viper are you? Mind on the 7 forum?

Eitherway, I'm up in Keller, so I'll keep my eyes open for ya.

We'll be there until at least 9:30 or so... And then we'll head somewhere else...

If anyone gets lost, just call my cellphone. 817-680-9968

Wow.. what a great turnout guys...

If my memory serves me correctly we had my 1st gen, 6 2nd gens, 3 3rd gens and 6 Rx8's out tonight at various times.. oh, and one Skyline.

I think the general consensus of the Rx8 crew was to make the 1st Wed of the month the big Rx8 gathering... Sound like a decent plan?

anyway, what you've all been waiting for.. Pictures!

Some came out more clear than others.. I REALLY need to get a tripod to make these shots come out how I'd like, but hey.. it's better than nothing right?

Nice to meet you guys! I look forward to seeing you all again soon


Oh, and if it makes any difference.. Scott the owner of cafe RPM seemed pretty amazed at our turnout.. :D

I thought it was great! First my jaw hit the floor because I was not expecting that. Then I got a great laugh knowing that these guys here would think you were nuts along with the rest of us in the pictures.
Maybe I'm easily amused but I thought it was great :D

Great pictures! Looks like a lot of fun. I like the titanium with the polished wheels. Can you guys post some more pictures of the yellow. Haven't seen one yet. Thanks!

One of the RX8 owners had some fun with us at City Streets last week. I won't mention any names though because I am a discreet kinda guy
