The owner is Sabrina AKA xxPurpleRx8xx. She just got her Veilside kit installed and painted. So, she's the **** now and ignores everyone on the road. There is 2 Veilsides in Vegas. Me & her..

Hey. I live in Vegas . . . I own a FD3S Rx7 (which is currently down) and my wife owns a Rx8. Here's a pic of our cars :D

What's up with RX8 meets? Do you guys go to vegasrotary.com meets?

Oh, if you see a guy in a Silver 2000 Civic wave at you . . . that's me in my daily driver :D

Very nice cars, they look real clean! Why is your 7 down? Blown motor or something? But, I'm glad to see another local joint the site.. We don't have any official RX8 meets as of yet, but we are working on it. Still trying to get organized, and getting a bigger group count. I have never personally been to a vegasrotary.com meet, but I've posted on the site before. Here's a picture of my current 8, I'll be getting rid of it soon for a 2007 model and different color.

Sweet. As soon as we everybody's info and what not, we should start meets real soon. But, do you post on Vegasrotary.com often or RX7club.com? Vegasrotary.com is pretty dead, not many people post on the forum.

Joe, where have you been bro? Did you get your 8 yet or what?

I use to drink, but I stopped.. Plus, drinking is not good for you, that's my lesson learned. So, don't drink too much like you did when you went to that concert, and then the whole weekend you were out of commission to do anything. You didn't even take pictures of your car yet and post them on here. But, call me on Sat. or Sun., call me and we'll meet up anywhere like you said. Maybe, you could come down to my house, and take pictures of both our Veilsides. Even though, mine is still sitting wrecked.

Are there any turboed, supercharged or other E-managed 8s in Vegas? I can't possibly be the first - there has to be others out there. I tried the local Forced Induction club forum, Las Vegas racing forum and Vegas Rotary and can't seem to find any other FI or e-managed 8s. One reason I ask is that Steve Kan is coming to town the 5 & 6 of May for a tuning session, dyno & street, and I seem to be the only 8 that is signed up. If anyone is out there, pm me and I'll set you up with the right people.

Right now all that's installed on my 8 is the Interceptor x but Pettit is trying to get me my S/C before Steve gets here.

I will be putting in a turbo, but I won't say which.. But, that's after I put on my wide body kit, rims, brakes, etc. Also, today I found out that my dad wants to keep my RX8, and told me to just get another one. HAHAH So, sweet! I also own a 05 black Mustang, that's my daily driver. I'm thinking about selling that now.. No clue yet. As far as the 8 meets go, we still need to get everybody's info completed, as well as PM me their e-mail and #. Here is what I got so far, it's still not completed.. We don't even know or have everyone's first name.

Still no RX8 yet. The wife wanted a Prius so I got one for her. Now i've inherited the truck & have to sell it before I buy an RX8. I'm hoping the 2008 RX8 specs are leaked soon. Someone posted the specs for canadian cars and it looks like (for 2008) winning blue is back & the moonroof is optional, so I'm hoping they do the same for US Cars. I'm sure production starts sometime this summer so they'll have to make up their minds soon.

Anyone wants a 2007 Chevy Silverado 4x4 crew cab? 6.0L and 367HP can't be wrong... Gets the same MPG as the RX8 too. LOL

Damn, woman.. Anything else? Hahah JK! I could possibly drop it by, I'll even install them for you if you want me to.. And maybe meet some of your lady friends, you know? Hahaha But, just give me a call whenever, don't be shy either. I don't bite, unless.. Nevermind. I had melted gummy bears before, you just gotta scrub hard to get it off!

She wanted a Prius? Why?? LOL What's so good about the car? I don't know much about it, to be honest.. Besides that it gets good MPG! But, you really want that MT Winning Blue RX8? What about the interior? Leather seats or just cloth?

I'd like leather, but I'm too tall for the moonroof that they force-feed you on cars with leather. So cloth it is... Amazing how dumb car companies are.

Damn, how tall are you?? I personally never liked the moonroof on the RX8.. It sort of kills the smooth lines on the roof, plus it looks weird when it's open. But, I'm glad that the Prius is working out for you guys, is it meant to be a family car? It's a 4 door car with a lot of room from what I've seen.. The MPG on the car is unbelievable, save a lot on gas-huh?!

You could never convice me to clean your car, not even if you paid me!! But, changing the subject.. How come you never called over the weekend? I don't know If I can take you as a serious buyer now.. You said before you were gonna buy them, and then you never did. So, I don't know what's going on now..
