the b-pillars were rx8 stickers i got from sevenstock last year(?) i think they look good there. i also like the calipers best $40.00 spent so far. still waiting for my greddy exhaust ans eibach springs, hopefully they will be here soon.

2010 Prius - Miss the 8
A Mazda RX-8 in Irvine is considered an average car... if you head further into OC, you see all the SL500s, Ferraris, Porsche 911s, etc etc.. it really is that crazy sometimes. Just visit Fashion Island during a weekday afternoon, and you'll see all these rich Milfs shopping around putting their purchases in their benzs..etc.

I don't know about how other parts of the country are, but a Benz/BMW 330i or better is like the "average" car in the OC. The Standard of living there is pretty much like how the TV show sees it... rich white folks. Not that it's bad or anything, it's just how it is. Especially in Newport, Laguna Nigel, etc.
I saw the Enzo driving on PCH near Newport... near that fancy Euro auto place that sells the expensive cars.
If you want to see lots of random fixed up cars.. go to Alhambra... Garfield/Valley blvd area... or Focus on Friday/Saturday... or head to the Hacienda Hts. area shopping centers. Tons of fixed up this, and fixed up that. Every kid and their moms has a suped up cars.
Guess I'll have to drive my car to South Central to stand out eventually... Weessssiiidde..

Hey Zoom2x I was one of those red 8 at the Century Theatre on Katella in Orange last Friday at the noon showing. I was watching TROY too.
To Outlaws eXtreme I know what you're talking about I live in costa mesa and I always see BENZ and some ferrari's and maserati's especially, I actually raced a couple of them w my DSM though.

It took a while, but now I'm starting to see RX-8's on a fairly regular basis -- not every day, but at least a couple sightings a week, and some very close to home.
I've seen a black one w/spoiler & black/red interior (don't remember if it had the rest of the appearance package) parked at the Regal 22 Cinemas in Foothill Ranch, a black one w/spoiler (maybe the same one?) parked near Lowe's in Rancho Santa Margarita, and a red one driving around RSM a couple of times.
Do those belong to anyone here?

>a red one driving around RSM a couple of times.
That could be me, although I've seen one other red one around town a few times. I chased a silver one through Live Oak the other day. That was fun!

Ive seen a lot of rx-8s lately and haven't posted. Like last night at the irvine spectrum i parked right next to a new black rx-8. He had it right, out of the whole empty parking lot it was parked in the back all alone ![Wink](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/wink.gif)
Well a few nights ago I was on my way to Mission Viejo from Irvine and were driving and my girlie says hey look theres a white rx-8. I say, nah it cant be white... show cars, ect. We get closer and right behind it, yup its white. Its the JadaToys show car that we all have seen in the pictures. Decal work and all done to the car, we wave to each other then i get out of the lane and go to my destination.

I saw two blue RX-8s over the weekend which is a rarity for me since I usually see black, titanium, silver, and red ones. One was parked near Old Navy in Foothill Ranch on Sunday, and the other one was going North on the the 405 near Jamboree on Saturday. The one on the 405 pulled up next to me and we smiled at each other. Woohoo! -- my first contact with a fellow RX-8 owner on the road!

If that had been Friday night it could've been me at the Spectrum -- I always try to park far away from everyone. It's kind of a drag sometimes making the long trek out to the car, but I'm still paranoid about door dings, and besides, I get to admire my car while I'm walking towards it.:D hee-hee!

I've been away from the forum for a while, but it's been fun reading through some of the threads again.

btw, I love the RX-8 in blue -- *almost* wish I had gotten it in blue, myself.
