3 RX-8s in 2 days in San Diego!
I've had the car for 6 weeks, and the only RX-8 I've spotted since then was a blue, the driver of which refused to make eye contact while we sat perpendicular to each other at an intersection.
Then yesterday in the Sorrento Food Court I spotted a red and another black, and today on the way to work I pulled up to make a left turn and there was another black in the lane next to mine. We pulled down our windows and shouted "nice car" to each other. He didn't know about the forum, but I gave him directions ... let's see if he turns up.

I live in east county, and there are four of them I see occasionally. Silver, titanium (like mine except no spoiler), blue and black. I work in Mission Valley and in adjacent lots I can see a silver and a red. Plus someone who works down here has a yellow one I see all the time. Yet, while on a trip to LA recently, I didn't see another one the whole day!

I had mine in for an oil change last week, and had to use one of our other cars. I was on my way to pick mine up, after missing it all day. Driving home on Friars Road, and what pulls up behind me at the light but a red 8. And then, a bit later, coming the other direction is ANOTHER red 8! Needless to say, I sped home so I could pick my baby up. Have I mentioned lately how much I love my car? :D

One of those days......this morning - on 163 South and exiting on Clairemont Mesa Blvd, and lo and behold, there's a titanium grey exiting right in front of me. We looked like twins. And leaving work in Mission Valley, headed for Hillcrest for dinner, there's a sunlight silver just two cars ahead of me on 8 West. I'm spotting more of our babies every day!

I live in La Mesa and work in Mission Valley....have yet to see another RX-8. If you ever see a Red one, appearance package with rotary accents, tinted windows, and Mazdaspeed applique on the B-pillars, that's me =)
If ya see me on the road, gimme a wave. I dont belong to the local RX club...I submitted an e-mail to join but havent heard back in over a week. I know there's a Bennigan's meet on the 5th, right? Anyone else going to that?
Drop me a line anytime. Always lookin to meet new people.

I haven't joined the local club either. I'll get around to it! Where did you get your windows tinted, and are you happy with the job they did? That's my next step!

My 8
Mine is off Camino Del Rio South, usually next to or behind the mortgage building that's next to the Denny's. And I got my windows done at Elite Image on El Cajon Blvd. The place is kinda sketchy appearance-wise, but dont let that put you off... they do a great job and are really nice. Did my whole car in an hour and a half, lifetime guarantee from the usual bubbling, tearing, etc. and if you get a ticket, they'll remove it for free so you can get out of the ticket, then if you go back they'll put it back on for only $20. I've only had the tint for a week and a half now, but so far it's great. I'd recommend them.

You can add one more RX8 to your San Diego list. Got a very nice deal on a brand new '04 last weekend. You may see a red touring RX8 with appearance package between Carmel Valley and downtown.
