WOW!!! I got spotted, just give me a minute to soak in this moment. I've never been spotted before lol. Yeah it was definitly me, I was dropping in some gas in my tank. I don't remember spotting you, but I would know if I did.

Does anyone know a WB that works at Wells Fargo on 24th st. and Camelback?? I see it there a lot, and I put a piece of paper that had a link to the website on his/her door handle.

Spotted a NG for the first time ever yesterday in the bofa parking lot at Hatcher and 7th st. I believe, do you work there?

spotted a WB this morning heading west on Camelback near 18th st.

I'm shocked at how many I've been seeing lately. Most of the time the 8's don't seem to exist.

Well...Nissan Midway had a BB RX8 sold...I saw you turning onto Bell Rd. Don't know if you're even in any clubs, or if you're just a non-car person

I spotted a couple yesterday. Let's see, around noon'ish or so in Mesa headed west, a Titanium or Galaxy Grey. I pulled onto the 60 from Ellsworth and left you in my dust

Yesterday around 2:30 a Lightening Yellow w/the sunroof open and strakes. You were on Cave Creek heading north going thru the Deery Valley intersection. I was the Ti Gray headed south that flashed you and waved.

Also around 3pm on the 202, traveling from say the I-10 to McDowell/Priest or so, It was either a black or a very dirty black cherry. You had some stickered writing on your back window in hot pink? I couldn't make it out. I was the Ti Grey if you saw me.

It was a good say yesterday! I love seeing our cars on the roads since I never get to see mine in action.

Hmm. I was on 51 yesterday. Don't think it was me (Black-Cherry) but if it was me, I didn't see ya :-(. I didn't think I was driving "that" fast though, heh.

Wasn't in that area, so not it (though mine is pretty dirty right now, heh).

Saw 2 in parking lots yesterday, when I wasn't actually in my vehicle though.
When I was in my friend's Escalade thing, I saw a winning blue going through the parking lot on Val Vista & Baseline (my Phantom Blue was parked right there). Then at Tempe Marketplace in my mom's orange vehicle thing, I saw a Silver w/ 2 ppl (my pb was parked there as well).

Spotted gal in Phantom Blue with Texas plates, on Campbell between 44th St. & 24th St.around 5:45 tonight . She pulled up along side me when I was waiting to turn South on 24th, we exchanged pleasantries on how beautiful each others 8's were. She went North, I went South on 24th.

I wish I could get spotted. I should have bought a Mustang or a ricer. Tucson has plenty of those.

We'll be down there Sunday Paul, you can spot all of us lol. And plus, why would you want something that everyone has? That's why civics and mustangs are boring. 350Z's are getting there too

And I spotted a SS driving west on Glendale little before Central

Yeah very true. When I got my 8 up there at Earnhardt I was stuck between my 8
and a used Z. I feel like I made a good choice.

Definitly a good choice. I love the styling on our 8's. Plus, I love our unique engines. And the high RPMS we can run

I spotted a LY at 19th Ave and Greenway. He was heading south on 19th ave at the intersection, stopped at the light as I was driving through the intersection west-bound on Greenway. Flashed my lights at him but I don't think he noticed

That or no one with an 8 lives in Tempe.
I work in Tempe. Seen a few here (White, silver and black, thus far).

I'm starting to think Tempe is a breeding ground for 8's, heh.

During lunch:
Saw:
-a Black 8 going down McClintock
-a Red in the Mall parking lot (Tempe Market or something, it's called?)
-a silver on Priest

and then parked by the white one, in my work's parking lot, LOL!
