Yes I have a spoiler... and my hair is light brown and can usually be seen all frizzed out due to me driving fast with the windows down. I don't have any "style" in my hair either, its just combed straight down because it sucks and won't do anything cool.

LoL

I've seen what looked like the same black Rx-8 twice on 121 in the last couple weeks, and I've tried to catch up but can't through traffic.

Do you commute though the bedford area on 121 in the morning or evening time?

Spotted a TI gray on 45 S between I30 and I20, it had a MS Rear and maybe sides but just a GT Aero-package front.

Who was the guy I waved to/waved back at me at the KFC/LongJohnSilver's on Mockingbird yesterday. Silver, split 5 spoke aftermarket wheels.

Spotted a "Stealth" Green! I was coming back from Alvarado. They were heading south on 35W by exit 32.

I also spotted a blue about 2 miles before that.

Might have been me. I have a BB with spoiler and ground effects kit (aero package?). My exit is usually either 360 or Hall-Johnson so I might not be going as far down as you.

My commute times are wierd though, typically between 9:30 - 10am and 7 - 9pm.

I do have a mazdatrix license plate frame. I guess thats my only distinguishing feature.

Spotted a Silver driving in some parking lot off of Coit in Plano today around 7 pm or so.

Spotted a White at Coit/Plano Parkway (I think... they were turning onto Coit). I tried to wave but I don't know if they saw me w/the angle and windows.

Hey Dazy you know I was thinking. As much as we spot Rx-8's off Bryant Irvin you'd think we'd spot each other at least once! :D

Helped out an TI Gray 8 on 635 this morning. Some asshat had lost a tire (with a wheel) and he hit it, with radiator/grill/front end damage worse than Jenkins. Poor guy. I think his name is Gary, with LAB GUY licence plate. I was in Matt's truck since I had to pick up the pups from the kennel this morning. I pulled over and took him to the McD's on Montfort.
Poor thing. That's going to be $$$ to fix.
Seemed like a nice guy, I told him to check out the site.

Wow, that does suck... hope his insurance takes care of him.
Maybe he can do the "D/FW: Hit something on the highway, and buy a MS Bumper" Swap.

I have a couple of sitings this weekend, all in/around Austin

- Saturday in the evening, saw a black going north on I-35 after the highway split, then he took the 2222 exit going East.

- Does anyone here own a Shinka and live at the apartment complex near Parmer? I was visiting my friend and I thought I saw one parked there... but wasn't sure. If so, the one of the girls at the leasing office likes your car.

- On sunday morning, heading down to SA, another black drivin by a guy with a hands-free cell phone piece in the ear. Had a spoiler on the rear, and I drove behind him for about 10 miles or so before I had to pull off and get some gas. Also, on a cool note, during that time period there was a spot where there were five mazda's all in a little pack, the 2 rx8s, an mx3, and 3 white hatchback an 626 brining up the rear.

- on sunday evening, back in Austin, a white one going south on 35 just south of downtown.

cheers,
michael

Was literally right next to a nordic green at a stoplight going onto south 360, middle-aged male, tried giving thumbs up but didn't seem to notice me.

Few minutes later, a women in a silver exiting 360.

I saw a Black today. I was pulling out of Taco Bell in NRH. I pulled out of the drive through and almost hit him/her. I'm staying away from all other '8s!
