Hey Sham I was in the Dundas / Erin Mills area on Friday night with Maryann Faithful in the car. We were out at Cosco but that was around 8:30. Sure you weren't looking at the number on your volume setting? You've told me you hear the beeps all the time. And as for my viginity ... I loose it multiple times a day. Maryann Faithful is a Nymphomaniac. All she wants to do besides shopping at Winners and Cosco is have sex.
Hey !! I saw a Titanium at about 6:30 pass me on the 403 in Hamilton. Maryann was all over top of me again and I was only doing 110 maybe. Felt like a dork. Caught up to him as he was cutting off onto Main St and we exchanged thumbs up!
Like I said Black...you had your chance...Now let the Mic do his work...

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????)

Saw the same winning blue coming into Bolton on Friday morning that I saw last month. Saw a yellow with appearance package on Weston Rd south of hwy 7, I think I saw it making a right towards the auto mall from what I could tell in my mirrors.
We need some business like cards that just says www.RX8Club.com on them, that way when we see some of these cars we can put them on the windshield or doors. It seems many of these people do not frequest these forums.

Thanks Man , I've been having way too much bad luck . I was driving on the 400 north and a dumptruck didn't fully close his hatch. I noticed a bit to late and a big rock flew out , bounced off the ground and hit my windshield. I just started to laugh .
I really think the 8 is driving me insane. Jesus action figure just might do the trick ..... hmmmmm... LOL
I just went to the shop today and got the MS package put on (600 to install) . Now it just needs to be painted. I'm getting it done next week (should be done by friday). The car will stay in the garage till then.

I nominate Pete as the winner of "Worse Luck with a RX-8".
(BTW for those who really though I was kidding about the Jesus Christ Action Figure...CLICK )
I saw a blue 8 parked along King street West..near Peter Street. I also saw a red 8 parked in the same rip-off parking lot nearby...$15!!!
I was in a rush and didn't think--I deserve that...no think deserve expensive parking.

It's usually the Silvers getting all the bad luck, so far so good for me (knock on wood!). Anything salvagable with your appearance package? Nice coat of silver paint would do the trick, have pricing in mind?

Geeezzzz Did I Ever Get a Buzz Today
Driving to work this morning along the 407 doing 123-125 with everyone else when we hit the big 90 degree bend in the road at the 403 cutoff. As usual most cars slow down to 100 or so and move over into the curb lane ( there's only two lanes there). My sweet 8 is still locked in on cruise at 123 and I move over into the passing lane. Eat that bend up no problem. Out of the bend now and there's about 3 cars in front of me in the right lane. I want to be at the front of the line in the passing lane so I jump on it and in a heartbeat I'm at 145-150. At the same time I notice a black pickup parked on the shoulder .. then I notice an OPP cruiser further up parked on the shoulder. I then say **** - that's radar ... they've got me ... Sure enough I see in my rear view the cruiser jump out into traffic. I click into cruise at 117. Put my seatbelt on. There were now 3 cars way behing me in the passing lane. One by one they pull over into the curb lane and now it's just the OPP in my lane and me. Once again I say ****...
However I continue to cruise doing 117. When he is about 8 car lengths behind me I put on my right turn signal and move over into the curb lane. Now I say, I'm all yours - go ahead and play ******** ... Next thing I know he drives up along side me and then keeps going. ???
I say I can't believe this....
Only thing I can think of is there were two many cars grouped together for an accurate read on my speed ... the guy in the black pickup saw me scream by him so he called ahead ... I was cool enough to see what was going on and put it into cruise ... Disappointed the cruiser that I didn't keep doing 150...
**** this is the 4th radar I've lucked out with in the last 3 days...
They're going to get me I'm sure...Get me good ...It's just a matter of Time...

Hey Mic, on behalf of all of us here with '8's, I'd like to say thanks! Now the OPP will be looking out for and targeting all of the sexy rx-8's when they do their redar traps. :D Just kidding of course, There's those horse shoues I was talking about earlier.
