I was the black one in manhattan beach. My friend lives around there and I usually park there.
Would you be the galaxy gray in Westchester or the basic black parked in Manhattan Beach?
That IS a crazy intersection. Just left Big Wok Mongolian BBQ in MB and was heading to the 76 gas station on Marine & Highland. It's one of the cheaper places in the area for 91 octane. I have NO upgrades on my 8 yet, but MS exhaust will be 1st.

My camera is a Motorola Q camera phone
I leave it in the cupholder while I am driving in case I see any 8's on the road while I am driving.

I've had a few close calls waiting for my "Q" to boot up. This "I saw u today" forum is like a big game & I am constantly scanning the road for RX-8's.
My wife is in New Orleans, LA visiting family & she just called to say that she saw a white RX-8 in the French Quarter on Decatur St. (not that anyone on the west coast would know where that is, but it's 3 blocks from Bourbon St.)
It's funny how even those people who don't own an 8, but are associated with their owner's notice other 8's on the road.

haha, my Girlfriend called me an hour ago to tell me she spotted a Phantom Blue!
So true... our passion for these cars quickly transfers over to those closest to us.

Slow driver
Saw a stormy blue mica on July 4th getting on the 405 S. at Rosecrans at 6:05 pm(I think it was Rosecrans). Anyway I slowed down to get a picture but the driver would never catch up. I slowed down to 55 mph and gave up after 1 mile when I realized the 8 did not get off the 405, but was not catching up either.

I spotted VR Rx8 out of the corner of my eye so me and my girlfriend parked next to him. i dont think he seen me but he was parked at the Tracy West Valley Mall. His car was way cooler then mine. Two tone red/black leather seats, fog lights, sun roof, and rotary emblems in the front.
let me know if your on here i dont know many people with 8s in my area.

...I'm SOOO Off Topic
i seen a few this week.
just saw a silver one today after work... i saw it at the gas station... i slowly pulled up.... got NEXT to Her. it was an older lady and a young dude in the passenger seat.
Yeah, i thought, "eh, its just a lady who bought the car just cuz she liked it..."
but she had some really nice rims on it.... so i started to think she was one of us....
so i make eye contact (while pumping gas).... nothing
even the dude in the passenger seat was scared to look over.
so either she/ they werent one of us... or..... they thought I wanted to race them or something and scared them off, hahaha....
either way. Im tired of pulling up next to 8's and getting no love![Frown](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/frown.gif)
I should go down to your guys' area :D I'll be giving thumbs up to ever 8 I see... haha

Dejavu Romeo
Yesterday (07-05-07) at 6:30pm I saw a galaxy gray 8 getting gas in Long Beach at the Chevron near 1st & Alamitos. It was driven by an older white female with silver/gray hair and had a much younger white male passenger. The car had chromed rims but neither the driver nor passenger would make eye contact with me.
BTW...I was not driving my 8 at the time, so I will cut them a little slack as I appeared to be just another guy in an SUV (wife's car) getting gas.
Pretty funny how we both saw older females with younger males getting gas in an 8. Like I said.....dejavu.
