New Canadian member!

Hello fellow Canadians! I'm a new RX-8 owner, as of Dec 19th 2006. I posted these pics in the multimedia section (Mikes thread) but I'll repost them here as well.

I have some snows waiting for installation in the garage...hardly seems worth it, though!!!

But of course it was snowing the day I took the pics!













And here's one of my mug...can you tell I'm excited????

boffam,

congrats on the new car. I just drove thru kingston and honestly, don't bother with the snows, they'll just get worn down. i don't think we're gonna get snow for a good while.

Thanks for the welcome everyone...I've already met another member (sadly for only a short while), and hope to meet more.

Good call on the calipers and hubs...I'll do it when I switch back to summer tires.

**goes off to search forum for "paint"; "hubs"; "calipers"**

^ boffam, might want to look into Snyper Slotted Rotors. They have a black anti-corrosion coating which would look pretty baller on your car if you're going for the all black look.

Hi all,

Instead of starting another thread, I thought I would post here.

I am also new to the club, altho I've had my car since May 2006.

I live in Richmond Hill Ontario and my 8 is a 2006 SE (Copper Red).
Hope to meet some of you guys when we have a meet in the GTA.
Where do you guys post club meets for different regions?

PS: Phil (Black 04 RX8), if you see this message please reply so I know who you are. (We've met Shell car wash in Richmond Hill back in the summer).

What's the best way to do that? I have the same Kingston Mazda sticker on mine. My car's about 2.5 years old now. If I remove the sticker, am I going to notice any paint colour difference now?

Ah, another person who knows Kingston...

The sticker comes off pretty easily, and you shouldn't notice much difference in the paint.
