Galaxy Gray Shinka. Gurnee, in my driveway

Just wanted to say hi to everybody here. I try to get another owner's attention in public and I get nothing. The only person who got my attention was in a black cherry shinka with chrome wheels up in Libertyville on Milwaukee/21 (This was a few weeks ago). Something tells me this is the norm.

Sunlight Silver on Lakeshore Drive this morning around 8am heading south to the Loop.

I was directly behind or in front of you at times in the black RX-8, fairly loud exhaust.

I see alot of 8's around the Schaumburg/Hoffman Area. I'd honk and wave, but you'd likely look at me like I'm nuts. (No longer own/drive an 8)

You may be one of the ones I've seen, I know for a while my silver was the only one with the MS wing, which is why your 8 caught my eye. I still see my old 8 cruising around and it hurts sometimes.

If you see a Black Subaru Legacy GT with a big *** FMIC, that would be me.

Sorry, this wasn't in Chicago but it was in IL. Saw another VR in town a few days ago at a mattress store near me, so I'm not the only one around now.
