Sorry man. The wife rarely goes out on the weekends and she is great about me hanging out so no way I was going to say anything.
makristal 04-12-2011, 09:58 PM Why not? Trading in?
Yeah possibly, thinking of upgrading both of our cars to 1 nice car, or a pretty nice car and a motorcycle.
makristal 04-12-2011, 10:12 PM But for this meet I might come down in my friends car, she wants to buy some good car cleaners...

pdxhak 04-13-2011, 07:57 PM Yeah possibly, thinking of upgrading both of our cars to 1 nice car, or a pretty nice car and a motorcycle.
That sucks but understand. Seems like NW 8s are dropping like flies. Good luck :)
SkiPunk11 04-13-2011, 08:19 PM That sucks but understand. Seems like NW 8s are dropping like flies. Good luck :)

Mrktplayer 04-13-2011, 10:03 PM Hi guys, new 8 owner here. As of right now I'm free on the 30th. I'm in Downtown Seattle, so if some of you guys want to meet before rolling down to Tacoma I'm game.
ANIBALRX8 04-14-2011, 12:14 AM I will be there, for sure. I got a three day off weekend!!! If anybody wants to meet some place in S hill mall or Tacoma mall by Krispy Kreme doughnuts and roll in together, let me know. If not hope to see you all there!!!
makristal 04-14-2011, 01:00 AM Why don't we all have 2 meets. One for all the north people...Then one for the 1-2 people from the south.
dondo 04-14-2011, 12:54 PM Pretty sure, pdx, dondo and myself are "wasps"

n8v-8 04-19-2011, 07:31 PM Can't wait to finally meet some other rx8s!
Mrktplayer 04-24-2011, 11:39 PM Confirmed, I'll be there from 11am to about 1pm. Just got an 8 recently so I'm looking forward to meeting other 8 owners.
RearDriveNinja 04-25-2011, 04:05 PM Is there a set meeting spot and time for the north end 8's yet?

FazdaRX_8 04-30-2011, 06:23 PM IT was a blast several 8's and 2 fd's
Will post picture driving home now
ANIBALRX8 04-30-2011, 09:00 PM It was a great meeting! no speeding ticket this time, and I spend $40 dollars on speedy shine kit car looks great! I will take picture tomorrow and post picture of my car!!!
I didn't take a count, but I think there were 8 RX-8's. I meet RearDriveNinja who I was parked by. Most of the other 8's were spread out through the parking lot, and I didn't end up meeting everyone.
It was a good meet though and Griots was a great place!
n8v-8 04-30-2011, 10:05 PM That was my first car meet ever.. And I got a bad parkin spot near the front entrance away from all the other 8s, and never got a chance to talk to any other 8 owners :( , but I gotta ask what is with the purple rims?
FazdaRX_8 04-30-2011, 11:32 PM I meet,
anibalrx8 I seen everywhere, NOS and griots, lol the car shined up really well!!!!!!
reardriveninja, I talk to quite a bit
l8tr, I seen you but I didn't formally introduce myself, sorry about that, the name is Branden, I had the camera :)
n8v-8, yeah the parking for you wasn't great, you should have snuck in when some of the cars where moving!!!
another guy with the 8 said he didn't go to this site but did the rx7club.com
bumblebee was there aka lorotor
I have pictures I will post after a few edits and uploads!!!
I hope to see everyone again at the Levenworth meet in June, SeanJ the director is going to see if corksport can come out, and perhaps even NOS!!!
hornbm 05-01-2011, 12:42 PM Purple rims warrant death. It was awesome meeting everyone.
pdxhak 05-01-2011, 12:51 PM Sounds like a good meet. Too bad you guys did not meet up and roll in together. Looking forward to seeing some pics!
