Canadian role call?

Has anyone ever done a poll on how many Canadians are actually part of this forum? It would be cool to find out, maybe reply and if you have a car coming etc.

Ay.

If I still like the car after the feedback I get from here, I will have one in my driveway spring of 04, after my current lease expires.

What part of the GTA are you from? I'm from North (rural) Burlington. What are you driving (I'm guessing a Prelude?)

Sharky Here, from downtown Toronto. I've got a Winning Blue 8 coming in soon (hopefully!) to replace my 93 Grand Am GT. Bought that car new in 92 and it has served me faithfully for 11 years. I will be sad to see it go (who says guys aren't emotional?!) Anyway, I'm sure the sadness will fade quickly as soon as I get to take the 8 on a little road trip to find some twisties!

Ron Jeremy, what colour are you getting?
Sharky, is yours a GT?

Boy I can't wait until we all get our cars! It will be cool to meet together in our respective cities.

I obviously have too much time on my hands.
Going thru the various threads I have counted 39 Canuks so far.
(probably more, I stopped counting, I'm going out on my deck to enjoy a cold beer)
14 identified with cars coming.

Just back from the states. Went down as far as Chattanooga and never saw one RX-8.

Anyway, I have a Lightning Yellow GT with 6mt, moonroof and NAV. It was at port a couple of weeks ago so I'm assuming it will be here next week. I've asked Pooch350Z to check my VIN out.

Glad to be part of this RX-8 forum.

Burlington, ON here also.

Happy to announce that just hours ago I finally sold my BMW 330Ci to a VERY lucky new owner (he got the car for a steal).

What is it with the luxury used car market in the GTA these days...no one is buying?

At any rate, my baby is now sold, and I'm officially going to the dealership tomorrow to start berating them about when I'll be expecting my Black, 6 sp RX-8.

Has anyone ordred accessories yet?

Bruce here. I have a red GT with red/black leather and moonroof on order. Supposed to be here in September. I'm in Mississauga and ordered my car in Hamilton.

Hey Deep Blue and Rotorian - where did you order your cars? We should be investigating ordering some accessories together to get a better deal.

I've got a '96 Ford Probe GT for sale. If anyone's interested, send me a note.

I went to the dealer in Bracebridge, they were able to get me their first car in the first shipment.

Deep Blue, did you order your car in Burlington? I know them really well.

Beautiful city you live in TT2RX8! Was fortunate enough to stay in the Chateau Frontenac last week for a couple of days on our way back from the Maritimes. Looking forward to visiting Old Quebec again in the near future. It's only 8 hours away, and it will fly by in the RX-8.
