Any rx-8 owners in sf here? I know I've seen some around and said "hi" to a blue 8 owner. Anyways, just wanted to see how many owners are in SF.

haha, guess it's still us two. However I do see a red rx-8 on lawton all the time, and I see a blue one from time to time. Hey brothervoodoo, just curious, you don't happen to be friends with a guy named steve do you?

who's the silver rx-8 on polk/turk. I go to the Culinary Academy there and see it parked there everyday.

just wondering who you are and want to say hi. I don't have an 8 but I have a 7. My neighbor across the street has a yellow RX8.

Anyone know where to get 5W-20 all synthetic oil. Just want be ready when it's time to add. I checked Kragen. I can get Mobil at Auto Barn on line but I thought I might be able to get it local.
Thanks

I'm from San Francisco but, don't own a RX-8. I wish i did but, I don't have the money right now.
Maybe one of you guys can let me test drive one of your 8's :D

I don't think the Silver one on Polk attends the Academy. I work at the Academy and never se the owner drive it away. Probably the fastest car from our school is a red Evolution 8.

I also saw a black RX-8 last week, Tuesday or Wednesday, around 3:30pm in Japantown. Then a red RX-8 today on 280 N around 2:30pm heading towards the city.

I know there are more RX8 owners than this.

yeah, I agree with Ergo. I talked to a black rx-8 owner on 19th Ave at a stop light, are you out there? And I've seen a blue, and I know there are maybe 4 tit grays including mine. However it's still very rare that I see a 8 in san francisco. Anyways, hope to meet all of you one day.

Hey. did anyone in a titanium gray say "nice car" to you on 19th Ave about 11pm, a month ago? if so, that would be me. I figure there's probably not too many winning blue's in sf.

I have not really posted but I guess I should as I have been reading the board for months. I am moving into San Francisco next week, but I am staying at my friends place near San Jose until then so already in the Bay Area right now.

Hi. I have a titanium gray and just moved here from London (by way of Atlanta - I am an American)

Pics of my other car (still in Atlanta) are on my website as well.

Where are you guys going for an oil change? I am just now hitting 5,000 miles as I drove it cross country. Great drive. I would normally do it myself except I have nowhere to do it here, which I guess I am going to have to learn to deal with.


Ughh. This is not my profile. I will have to fix that. Why does this board do that so much? I am murix, not rx8br.

Cheers,

Murix

Welcome to the Bay Area murix. The only Mazda dealer in SF is Royal Mazda. But you can find others around the Bay Area and closer to San Jose.

Are you the one that turn off to 18 a block later than I do? I guess that will be me.

And thx for telling me about this forum. Got your card last night.

And hi to brothervoodoo. I'm the black rx-8 that spoke w/ you @ chevron.

By the way, I saw another black rx-8 driving out of the parking lot near daly city century theaters about a month ago. Are you out there?

Hey man, good to know that you got my card, I was pretty sure that it was you on Noreiga since black 8's are rare in SF. It's great meeting rx-8 owners in the city. Anyways, my name is Phil, good to meet you all, hope to see you around the city again. Maybe we can get together a rx-8 meeting here in sf instead of all the way in sunnyvale.

P.S.
I was the one that talked to you on 19th, and turned off 18th.

Just curious, did you mean January? :) anyways, we should definitely start scouting out some possible locations. We can get all our cars out there and take a pic or something. Anyways, lets get everyone involved.

sf can be a little crowded for a whole big group of cars. having done lots of meets with my old car club...

what about north of the city in marin.. lots of big parking lots to meet and then twisty roads to drive.

what about here: http://www.nps.gov/goga/mahe/

scenic and a nice drive.

So how many people here are going to the Mazda Rev-it up event? I have already signed up and will be there. At this rate it may well be then we meet up. :D

I suspect everyone here is as busy as I am?

Rx8Past
01-20-2004, 12:39 AM
hey everyone. How about everyone throw out possible meetings places, and maybe we can vote on a place. Been seeing lots of rx-8's in sf. hopefully we can get everyone to get together.

01-20-2004, 04:51 PM
Argh. Work has taken my life lately.

Anyways, I saw a new black RX-8 running down El Camino @ San Bruno yesterday around lunchtime. Black sure looks nice. heehee. :)

So, are we meeting up at the mazda rev-it-up or are we meeting somewhere else?

Rx8Past
01-20-2004, 07:37 PM
hey someone has a brand new blue rx-8 and is always parked on 19th ave between pacheco and quintara. Anyways if you're on here, say "hi". Also I guess we will be meeting at the mazda rev-it up, however if everyone has time we should still meet before before that if possible.

Who has a silver RX-8 parked in their driveway every morning right next to a nice silver Gti. I see it everytime I drive down Holloway street. Two very nice cars.
