I sat in one at the autoshow. The interior is pretty crap compared to the R3. Everything felt pretty cheap. The gearshift also felt pretty bad. But then again.. torque and the big ******* wing really do it for me.

Hey does anyone know the guy with a grey 8 and plates that say Trini??? Or something close to that. I think he works at the dealership in Stoney Creek.

He'd be a really good friend to have.

Saw a badass silver 8 w/ spoiler in the HomeDepot parking lot next to Wilson Subway Station. Ran into the owner and it turns out it belongs to Rotary_Boy. Like the black painted stock rims.

Thanks for the tip on where to get my rims painted!!! Will see you at a rx8 meet soon.

Looks like no one has posted a sighting since May, and I thought I was the only one not seeing any 8's all summer! Finally spotted a Galaxy Grey going east on Main St (Hamilton) 3 days in a row this week around 8 AM ...and no...it was not my reflection.

Drove alongside this ghastly piece of work along Lakeshore Dr (downtown west Toronto) a couple days ago. I just had to snap a photo, that thing was a mess! Not anyone on here I hope? XD

Who was driving beside me in their very clean red R3 this evening along highway 7 approaching the 404 ? I saw your thumbs up - gave ya a wave back - sorry lol I didn't realize it was an RX-8 beside me until you pulled up in front of me a bit. Is your car cat-less???
