Talking RX8 from Hamilton area

Hello everyone,

Recently found this great forum and already got tons of help from awesome members. Since I am from Canada, so decided to post on this forum as well . I bought an RX8 a couple of months back. I have never had a sports car before, so I am a newbie with everything that has to do with cars .

Is there anyone else from Hamilton area on this forum?

When are you guys having one of those get together? I would love to join OR that doesn't happen in winter?

Hi there, I am from stoney creek as well actually. Stoney creek, Hamilton, all the same thing . That is why I mentioned "Hamilton area"

I am up on the mountain, mud street

From your signature, It looks like, you have a RED one. So do I!
I hardly see an RX8 in hamilton area but now I know there s surely another one .

Nice to meet you

You mean the Galaxy Grey parked at the house on the corner? Nope, I'm a mountain boy. There is a blue Eight on Upper Wellington that I've seen quite a few times.

Quite a few Stoney Creekers eh? I'm there for school right now, too bad the VR is away for the winter. Live on Barton right beside Timmies across from Mohawk. Keep seeing a VR with Mazdaspeed, is that you Leesha? Regardless its a very sharp looking car.

Yes that's me...lol...but don't tell anyone about me from out here in Stoney Creek...

My neighboors don't need to know my craziness... Or see all my pics I post...

Oh and if anyone has a front plate removed...I got ticketed this time around on the Red Hill Valley Prkway... Then a few days later I'm exiting and the same cop was making a left turn to go on the highway see me and gives me the ok sign with his fingers because he saw my plate on... THIS CAR ATTRACKS TOOOO MUCH ATTENTION...I'm not even going to tell you how I got the ticket!!

Thank God I put it on with those plastic things temp. or he'd have pulled me over again!!

Nothing planned right now (maybe some carbon fiber pads in the not-too distant future .

Just wondering if there were any options to the dealer for stuff not covered under the warranty.
