That's a very good question ... it's been obvious at warm weather meets, as we're pretty easy to spot (the idiots drooling over our cars and patting each other on the back for such great taste in automobile purchases). I'm thinking everyone should wear a red carnation in their left buttonhole and carry a NY Times in their right hand while walking with a slight limp. No?

Um, everyone wear a prominantly displayed rotor! No?

How about gather around the RX-8? Cuz you know there HAS to be one there, right? (I bet it's red too ... tho I would like to see that new Shinka color in person)

BTW the 3D glasses that came with the decoder ring broke after the first use. I am so disappointed ...

You know there will be a Shinka there. Lets all stand around it an complain about the color of the seats. Then we will know who is whom.

So, on the Official Chicago Auto Show website, they don't list the RX-8 as a vehicle that will be displayed... They have a pretty incomplete website so I hope they just left it off.

If they have the Kubura (it sound so Aussie) there, you all could stand around and say how it need a rotory engine.

Anybody see the Ford concept car? What the heck was with that thing? I was trying to figure out what it was supposed to be.

I didn't even walk into Ford. I oogled the DB9 though. That's one helluva comfy car. Now if I just had $170k lying around. :D I zipped right through the Mazda display. I was going to hit them up with some q's just screw around but thought better of it. The Challenger was by far the best concept. The Camaro looked really good, though I dunno if they'll follow through.

Yes, there is a great history behind those colors. The original LeMans winning GT40 wore those colors along with Gulf Oil sponsorship. Then a few years later the same team won again with the Porsche 917 with those same colors and sponsorship. I would take that car with those colors. Accually, I would take that car in any color.

If every one would pay their dues to the Treasurer, aka - me, then I could tell you exactly where the monies were misappropriated.
