NoVA RX-8's are everywhere!!!!
just today I saw THREE separate RX-8s (silver, blue, and red!) within a 2 hour span within a 10 mile radius of Tysons Corner!
that's more than the number of 350Z's I saw today! (one on Rt 28, the other sitting at the Dulles Carmax used car lot lol)
so how often do you NoVA RX-8ers see your bretherens on the road in the area???

I have only had three RX-8 sightings while driving (not counting the RX-8 festival, scenic drive and club meetings). A blue one during morning rush hour on Fairfax County Parkway at I66, a silver one at night on I495 at Tysons Corner and a silver one (maybe the same one) during morning rush hour on I495 at Tysons Corner.

Around the North Arlington, McLean area I have 2 different Silver 8s from time to time. We still seem pretty special. But I'm always on the lookout. Out at Tysons you see more because Rosenthal Mazda is out there. BTW, Rosenthal's prices on parts are competetive with Trussville if you can go there so you don't have to pay the shipping. :-)

Ok, going in through the main gate at work off of 123 at about 7:30 am Tuesday, I was behind a green 8 very similar to mine. We both parked on the upper deck of the parking garage. Anybody want to fess up? The only other 8 I have seen in the parking lot at work was silver.
And today I stopped in the parking lot of the shopping center off Sangamore in Bethesda and parked next to another green 8.
We ARE just popping up all over!

I'd wager 10-1 that blue one is me......those are my stomping grounds especially during the morning commute.
I see @least 2 a day.....there's a black one that belongs to someone in our office building off of 123 in Fairfax. And I usually pass a silver and/or a red one going south on Fairfax County Parkway just before RT50

I see them occasionally - a red one in Springfield, another red in Fairfax, a grey or silver in Burke. I saw a nice blue one on Fairfax Co Pkwy at 7:30ish this morning in the snow, and was hoping they have snow tires! Also another guy in my office just bought a used grey 04. A while back I saw a silver on the Dulles Access Road, but he ignored me. Humpf!

Well i definately give the old wave when i see one but i've noticed the women who drive them just don't understand...especially when i just get a dirty look like what r u waving for...oh well. Anyhow I drive a grey 04 to GMU. I live in the Cross Pointe area off of 123. I'm always driving around so if u see one with tinted windows no spoiler thats prolly me. Hopefully I will see some of u guys on the road.
