Meet the RX8 Owners from Greece!
Just came back from my business trip in Europe. I was fortunate enough to meet 34 RX8 owners in Athens. A few pics are attached at a local meet.
I would just like to say that these guys/gals are 1st class people and were so great to meet. They were so kind to make arrangements to pick me up at my hotel, took me out to a bar and a very late dinner. I only wish I'll have the opportunity to one day repay them for their kindness and hospitality. There were 34 RX8's from various places in Greece that came to the meet. Many of these cars were modified with different body parts, rims, tires, intakes and exhausts. No turbos though, YET! Their meets are exactly the same as ours. Everyone is happy to hook up and take a lot of pride in their machine. By the way, you will notice from one of the pics one of the guys trading in the RX8 for a Lotus Elise. He nevertheless is a main member of the RX8 club and one of the nicest guys I have every met. Many of the RX8 members brought their girlfreinds to the meet. In short, Greek people are great and have a lot of class. They really know how to enjoy life. I had a great time. |
VERY Cool!!!

BLACKTAN: Thanks again for your hospitality. I really hope your next convention will be in Toronto. Nothing would make me happier than showing you around Toronto and introducing you to the other RX8 memebers here. And please kindly give Spyros and Sergio my very best regards. |
Wow, they all sound like really nice people. It makes me want to go to Greece.

Wow I am impressed with that turnout. How nice to have such a wonderful experience with fellow 8 enthusiasts :cool: We're gonna need to see some more pics!

It's All Greek To Me !
Welcome Back Sham !! I'm off to Italy in November. For only 4 days. I tried to do what you did a couple of trips back, but it didn't happen. I'll tell those Italians I have a RED next time. We've got to put something together where there's a ton of us 8s. I couldn't believe that only 3 sweet 8s showed for a meet a couple of weeks ago. Anyway, I'll bring the Metaxa if you bring the souvlaki and chicks. ;)

^in Italy there are very few 8s, especially north Italy, just for the record. Jap cars don't sell like they do in Greece ;-)
how are you doing Ray?? still wondering about all the ugly british chicks :D :D Sergio |

Regards, Ella re, Gamesu malaka! Would love to see you this week! Lets get something going! |
