1st post: Spotted 2 RX-8's last night. WWP Series 1 on Pleasant St. in Fall River at 8ish. Exhaust, Black OEM rims, really clean. I was driving my work van (Toyota Sienna :P)

I also spotted a Yellow Series 1 when I was leaving work at the Newport Creamery parking lot in Fall River. I was in my 04 NG, but didn't see the owner.

Caught glimpses three on my way home from work this morning in the R3 on the Pike.
1.)Looked like a Stormy Blue with black wheels and polished lips by the chicopee exit about 7:45.
2.)What looked like a silver series II filling up on the pike at the Ludlow rest stop.
3.)A bright yellow series 1 with aftermarket spoiler by the Palmer exit.

Spotted this one this morning in the Everett Street Garage for Harvard in Cambridge. As I was lining up the shop it's owner came out and complimented my ride. Says he never saw one painted like it. I told him that was the point, very few custom paint jobs in MA it seems.

He was actually cool about it but yeah definitely looked a little... off. And the parking drove me nuts being so close like that.

Hey Lancifer, now that I've seen a picture of your car, I've seen you driving around a few times. lol But again I'm usually in my little NA Miata and not in my 8....except for once but I'm pretty sure you didn't notice me.

I have noticed 1 sunlight silver 8, 1 (gunmetal) 8 and 1 winning blue 8 in chelsea. I would not notice a miata for sure, mostly because I am always on the lookout for an 8. You should come to the meets. We have a monthly club meet and then some of go to the bass pro shops cars show in foxboro every other thursday. In fact I will be there tonight.

Also, spotted a Galaxy Gray in Fall River on Stafford Rd, bone stock exterior and exhaust.

Wow.. have we really seen all the RX-8s in MA there are to see? I try to snap a pic when I see one. LOL.

BTW Chip... there may be a tunnel run on a friday night coming up. (Tunnels runs that I have been in tends to be rather late to avoid traffic.)

Zelse: Not this Friday, but it will be on the calendar when I can gather the teams interest as a whole in a friday night tunnel run.

That sounds good to me as well.

Also spotted a SS Series 1 parked on Kennedy St. in Fall River a few times over the past few days, again looks pretty stock though.
