Damn! I've owned my RX-8 for over 3 years and have traveled through 4 different states. Have never been pulled over. I always thought I would by having a bright red car. Hehe.

Pulled over in the rental Ford edge while my 8 was in the body shop. Passed a statie, remembered me from a real bad accident on 93 north by the tanks in Dorchester and let me go after he asked if the guy we pulled from the wreckage lived.
It's great having my job every once and a while

Another Nordic Green riding westbound on the pike, drove next to him for awhile but he had some serious tunnel vision.
There's also a silver that I see in Cleveland circle all the time has some kit but I can't remember what it is right now.

Sat behind a red RX-8 with the nameplate removed for a few miles headed west on the Pike this morning (8:20ish). Didn't have a chance to pull up beside him and wave - I don't know if he knew I was there. I didn't get too close, since I didn't want him to think I was some random jackass riding his bumper..

It seems that RX-8s are coming out of hibernation - saw two in the last two days.
Was stuck in traffic on Rt.9 yesterday with a Shinka with NH plates. (At least I think it was a Shinka. The darker red paint wasn't stock for any model year, right?) Had a nice couple in it that returned the favor when I waved at them.
Today managed to catch up with a BB on 495 at the end of my commute. Pretty sure the driver noticed me, even though there were no exchanges of pleasantries :D

BB '8 in the Taunton Myles Standish industrial park Holiday Inn parking lot this morning. Parked next to you but you were still there when I was through with my workout; late sleeper I guess. 
"Sleepermodz.com" sticker. Perhaps you were visiting Altspace.

Alright so in Boston (Brighton) today
534 Blue GT turning down Comm Ave (into city)from Harvard Ave.
537 Black shinka with a dented fender sitting in traffic on Harvard Ave.
622 Ti Grey Parked on the corner of Comm Ave and Washington on the T side. (away from city)
Everything looked stock except that dent, that might have been an aftermarket dent.
