I saw a black one when I was in Bally's in maple shade on saturday, it made me happy while I was running. There is definitely a lack of 8's in south jersey...I only see one every few days, and it's usually because one lives on a road I drive on all the time.

hahaha... yes its blashpemy that my 97 auto civic coupe with 70K miles makes over 28 mpgs, while my 30K manual rx8 has been 16 at the best!!!! I must say the Rx8 def has a better FGT ratio.. Females per Gas Tank

You should just see the conversation between my dad and I, he believes a car is for going from A to B in the most economical fashion, I believe its for going from A to Bust and looking DAM good while doing it!


I have NO CLUE where Florham park is i have to be there for 3 weeks for training, i know it takes 2 hours driving w/o NY traffic and expected is about 2 hours using the LIRR and NJ Transit. Wait but i do know its next to Madison.

I am still looking for a place to stay around the area.

LOL, do your in-laws live in Bayonne? Car looks sweet with the carbon fiber hood; unfortunately I've put the car away for the summer. Will take it back out on rainy days and during the winter months. Going to enjoy my summer baby as much as I can:

Unfortunately I am only in town for the evening to eat at my wife and my favorite restaurant. I used to live in Lyndhurst and if I still did, I would have gone. I'll keep an eye out for your 8.
