Hey Jasper,

I did go to RPI (Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute). I'm in Auburndale (Newton) we must live within 3 miles of each other. Heh, and I also have a Winning Blue GT 6sp. We should meet up.

Always nice to meet a fellow Engineer! Hopefully some day soon we will be doing a tech day so I can get some stuff installed (springs and Stage 1). You should definitely talk to Gyro about the Mohawk Trail run too.

Hey Noel I did indeed get it from Champion Mazda.They wren't my first choice.I have always bought from the mazda gallery,but the guy at champion swung a great deal.I have not been impressed with their service or lack there of actually.I love the car though.400 miles on it in less than a week.

I work on Cherry Hill Drive, and take 97 North home, so the one on Odell Ave is not me. There is another black RX-8 at work, it might be him.

I just bought a black 6spd grand touring pkg and will be picking it up on Monday. I live in Templeton, MA which is out west but formerly from Everett then Framingham. I bought it at 128 Mazda in Wakefield. i'm sure I'll be seeing some of you around as I'm always up and about in the Boston area.

My office is a stones throw from Bear Hill Rd as well. Funny, I don't recall seeing any other 8's around? We should meet for lunch at Uno's someday ...
