Btw, this forum works well from my blackberry. So I can read and reply to posts at 2am in noisy nightclubs.

Spotted yesterday ... black heading North on Bruce Highway... IIRC not far from the Tannum Sands turn off and around 3pm. I was in the brown RX-8 (i.e. very dirty red) headed south.

Greetings All,
At 8am today I walked past a Winning Blue RX-8 in Garden St, Eveleigh, Sydney.

Talk about deja vu - I parked our blue one in the exact same spot last Saturday - this one has NSW premium plates that start with 'APE' - interesting !
Regards
Jeffneil

Mine's blue but I don't work in Burwood, drive past the place almost every night though.

Spotted a Pov pack Green this morning west bound on Parramatta Rd at Stanmore.

Hmmm, a very rare kettle of fish I must say.

I recently changed jobs, and my new office over looks Coronation drive at milton.
I spotted six 8's in one hour on Monday morning, 2 Red, 2 Blue, Silver and Yellow.
No..... I was not staring out the window, my pc backs on to the window and with the slow traffic they just kept catching my eye ... as the 8 always has.

Yellow had a chrome fuel cap.
Anyone here?

Oh, forgot to add, saw a Stratos Blue for the first time (amongst many other colours) .... sitting inside the showroom of the Mazda dealer on Parramatta Rd at Leichhardt.

Doesn't look too bad in real life actually.
