I like your avatar - my wife bought me a personalized plate for X-Mas (I've never been a big fan, but it's not bad)

Ohhh, this is a plane sighting thread now. Ok, I spotted a few Air Canada planes taking off, there was a few Lufthansa planes, and saw quite a few JetsGo's on the ground.
Spotted a Blue on the 407 approaching Britannia I believe at 8:05am. Was on the look out for Mic blowing by all the Beemers, but I guess you take off earlier.
There was a red one with strakes on the 401 stuck in traffic I believe between Mavis and Mississauga Rd around 4:45. Blonde driver.
While in my 8 going down Erin Mills, just after the Mississauga rd junction, spotted a Silver going north. Gentleman with white hair I believe, was in left lane, I was in far right lane going south, he didn't see me (possibly was George????)

Mic, because we only think of the 6 speed MT as real rx-8's. The automatic 8's get lumped to gether with the Mazda 3 sport hatchback sightings.
Sorry, couldn't resist the opportunity to **** you off!
Cheers Mic

HAHAHA
I tried looking out for you the other morning, but, you leave earlier then when I was on the 407, didn't get to see the famous "Eat My Dust Beemers" run. I guess you're just to fast for us to see, as your speeding down the highway like a guy just came home and caught you in bed with his wife .... wait .... maybe that is true
Sham, be easy on him for his being an AT, from the outside, they are all the same, beautiful cars, who cares what's in the inside. When was the last time you looked at a hot woman, and wondered what she was like on the inside.

I seen the "Mysterious Milton 8". Saw the black beauty last night in the parking lot of the milton mall. The license plate frame says Burlington Mazda so I'm guessing its the same one as Mic and I keep seeing.

Ah, my first sighting since I've known about this thread. Black 8 (no appearance/spoiler or anything) coming onto the QEW westbound right before the Ford drive exit around 11:30AM this morning.
I was in my company car and it was far away so I didn't wave...
But, made me feel that I needed to drive my baby so I swung by home and switched cars before going back to the office

Just spotted a Black 8 going north on Mavis, just passed Rathburn. I was waiting to turn left (roughly 8 cars back) going to Square One. I was in my Silver, don't think he saw me.

Burlington Mazda You Say !!
Geez....I bought two cars there and have done all my service there for years.
With the contacts I have ... Brilliant .. I will no longer require your services to locate the Black Widow...
As a matter of fact, with the poor co-operation I recieved from you, Hell can freeze over before I ever give you her address and phone number. Heck I have an appointment scheduled there for next Saturday and the chick that works the computer terminal there sleeps with my Boss.
As well, anyone that drives an 8 with dealership advertising on it can't be all that diffcult to sweet talk....
As for the AT Paddles...Sham...
All those so called hot cars in Burlington have just seen dust..
Hey.. had my stereo off last night and when I smoked a Hyndai so called sports car... I heard my red line beep for the first time....

Saw a Titanium Grey last night @ 1:00AM in the morning going south on Erin Mills crossing Dundas. There was a girl in the passenger seat. I was going East on Dundas crossing Erin Mills and I flashed the 8 but I don't think he noticed my 8.
Mic, Was that you ? As fore the beep, congrats on hearing the beep. You are no longer a RX-8 virgin! Now we got to set you up with a babe so you can lose your own virginity as well. :D
Take care and enjoy the weekend in Belleville.
