saw a SS with MS Bumper and MS Wing outside Go For Tea at around 8:00 pm, waited outside for a bit to see if i could park beside you, but in the end i parked somewhere else, and left before you left.

can't remember who you are, but i think i've seen you at one of the GTA meets. Or at least a car similar to yours

Oh a side note, was there an aston martin car meet of some sort today? cuz i saw around 6 aston martins within a 30-60 minute time span, some convertible, others not, and all colors, light blue, red, black silver etc. it was pretty cool seeing so many of them out today :D especially cuz it's not even a 'sunny' day

While I was out in Guelph yesterday in a government Sebring () I saw someone up by the MoT Licensing office with a SS 8, backed in up front, so probably there for a road test.

Also, I keep seeing a silver 8 with a body kit (not sure which, searching for it) coming from around Better Beef, car looks great every time I pass going the other way

It looks better coming than going, but I see it on an almost daily basis since I head down Stone road to Watson pkwy to head home. The driver is say mid 20's?

Sadly, I can't wave at/acknowledge anyone in an 8 yet since I don't have one of my own... It would be a little awkward for someone in a Nissan Sentra to wave at you wouldn't it?

so I was driving north along Markham last night (8:45pm) from Lawrence, and was surprised to see a tigrey (with the OEM spoiler) on the lane to the left.. to my excitement, i stepped on the gas for some speed to catch up to him and say hi.. as i was catching up, the freakin' douche bag, speeds away.. i took no offense thinking that he didnt see me. so i tried again up until milner, pulled right next to him, and NOTHING. lol. i really hope you didnt see me (eventho all your windows are rolled down).

hahaha... I think from now on, we'll just coin the term "Douche bags" to generally describe RX8 drivers that do not acknowledge back... kinda funny.

Saw a black 8 on the 401 west bound at Brock Street in Whitby, 9am yesterday (Wednesday) morning. MS Spoiler, in the fast lane. Actually, my wife spotted it for me! I had just merged on and she said 'there's an 8 right there!' So I had her record the details so I would not forget as this is my first time since then back on the site. I just left you to enjoy your ride as you were already ahead of me as I was in the wife's car anyway.

I keep seeing a beatiful girl in a Black Cherry Mica with full Aero package in Whitby. She always waves too! I hope I can flag her down one day so I can get her number.
