I wish the Rx8s would disappear.

Got Another Rotary
I would rather see too many, rather than not enough. Sales is what keeps Mazda making these puppies. If you want another one (next gen?) one day, then be pleased to see them on the road.

By the way...it's only going to get "worse and worse." These cars are cheap used.

I'm puzzled on how the transfer of ownership is going to make it "worse and worse"? There are still going to be the same number of 8s on the road.

My RX8 is same color, stock 18" rims. At least if I ever see your car, It's distinctive. But you're right, not that many RX8's in Connecticut. Even less with the GT package (where the extra trim on the car makes it look a ton more agressive).

幹他媽!
i live in LA also and have noticed a lot more 8's on the road as well... overall, we are still way in the minority compared to other cars on the road. so, no need to be bitter or sad about it.
in fact, if you look at it with a sense of humor, it's quite funny actually. if it makes u feel better, for every single 8 that i see each week, i probably see:
* several dozen Honda S2000's: Looking like a miniature "8 wanna-be's," but really ugly, mutated, insect fly mobiles.
* several dozen Mazda Miatas: Cute, cuddly, "girly cars" that wish they were an 8's, but sorry- not a chance.
* several dozen Subaru WRX's: Each one uglier than the next, regardless how big and ugly that stupid exhaust looks.
* several dozen Mitsubishi Eclipses: Good god, get that ugly *** image of a car out of my mind!
* several gazillion Toyota Celica's: NEXT!
* several dozen Nissan 350z's: If there isn't such a thing as a 350z ***** yet in the dictionary, there ought to be.
* several Infiniti G35's: The more "civilized" siblings of the 350z ******- except they just don't realize it. ******.
* several dozen Chevy Vettes: When the back looked good the front looked like ****. Now vice versa.
* several dozen BMW M3's: Yah, and an equal number of ****** driving them. What a waste of such a great car...
* several dozen BMW Z4's: Sleek, elegant, but has a big *** hood like a boat. Maybe it floats too...
* several dozen Lexus IS's: "WOO HOO look at me, i'm in a L-E-X-U-S." Good and hope u get car-jacked, *******.
* a gazillion dozen BMW 3's: The most superficial "I've made it car" of our time in LA. Ok, i'm guilty as charged too...
* several dozen Audi A4's: The "I REALLY wanted a BMW, but this was slightly cheaper and only slightly uglier... Plus I'm in BMW denial, but just don't realize it yet."
LOL
