I've bitched about this before but I need to vent again.

I am heartily sick and tired of getting this message:

Instead of the usual service.

Why is it STILL happening? What gives?

Almost forgot to tell you guys.

Are you sitting down?

Wait for it...

Drum roll please.

On Saturday, I waved to another RX8 driver in Sydney and he smiled and waved back!!!!!!!

I was so surprised I nearly ran up the *** of the car in front.

Wonders will never cease...

I suppose I should introduce myself, as I have been lurking and posting a little for over a month now.The information I have read here helped me to decide on purchasing this car.

My name is Michael, I live in the Burringbar range half way between the Gold Coast and Byron Bay. Perfect roads for my silver 06 MT 8.
In 5 weekends I have clocked up nearly 4000km largely due to some trips to Coffs Harbour.

I had to go to Brisbane for work on Saturday and a return trip on the Murwillumbah - Nerang road through Numinbah still has me smiling.

welcome, you will LOVE this place

edit:
whilst doing grocery shopping.... spotted a blk rx8 in a magazine (i think it was called Summer Nats Special... should still be on newsagent stands). P. 114. this dude won a few sound off trophies and apparently his 8 is turboed. he is from ACT.
