thief: perfect pick up opportunity - "i can teach you how to drive stick... then you can trade that rx8 in for a real one... here take my phone and put in your number"

i think its better than the "rogers line" personally

Sigh!
Old Farts unite!
Always tip a hat to another 8, don't flash freaks people out! more old fart lingo.
Was behind another GG 8 w/ aftermarket wheels/wing thursday morning all the way down 404 @ 8:00 am, wave, rode his ***, wave again no response all the way to 7 exit. some young guy with his old lady. Maybe he was just too busy chat'in her up, knew I was there saw woman turn and look....... so there!

I think I see whitecomet white 8 around town regularly or maybe not?

spotted a red rx8 on the 401 between KW and guelph heading east around 1pm today. I was the red rx8 that was following a red rx7 and being followed by a silver rx7. I waved at you, you acknowledged me (or us). wish i could have notified you about the huge meet we were heading to.

saw so many 7s and 8s at that meet today!!

when you put so many RXs together side by side, they don't look as good as they would if they were seen by themselves on the roads. IMO anyways. but very cool to see so many cars nonetheless

no need to feel intimidated. I must have approached and converesed with 15 people i've never met before in my life today and im acutally a shy guy. We are all very friendly and obviously have a common interest. Now the GTR and that 350z that showd up...they had reason to be intimdated. lol.... the enemy showing up at our meet.

haha. so see you next meet maffu313?

hopefully =) I left when that GTR left, followed right behind him onto the Gardiner Expressway. His car STINKS!! I wasn't even tailing him and I could smell his exhaust, I was wondering if there's even a CAT on that, saw smoke coming out constantly.
