I saw a very shiny blue RX-8 on Sat at around 11:30am on Crowchild going South... he followed me all the way into Garrison Woods residential area but later took a turn.

Invading my territory eh GhostRider? Ha ha ... well at least that's somebody that I can tick off the list of 8's in our area. Still have to find that other blue 8 that lives in Pineridge. Oh and can't forget the mystery yellow 8 that's I've been seeing since I got my 8 a year ago.

Anyhoo, today around 5pm turning on to northbound 36th St NE from Sunridge Mall was a titanium 8.

So today is lucky 8 day! On my way to the gym at around 9pm, I saw the mystery yellow 8 heading eastbound on 32ndAve at 36st NE.

AND on my way home from the gym around 10:30, I saw a blue 8 with appearance package, stock spoiler and orange corners turn in to the Peter Lougheed Hospital normal entrance.

So I have finally determined the identity of the mystery yellow 8. Saw him in the parking lot near my work (T&T mall). Cool guy and really upto date on the recalls, etc despite not being on the board. Hope to see you here.

So today on my way to hockey, I was going down Bow Trail (sorta near Westside Rec Center) and saw a grey 8 in my rearview mirror. Believe it was blond gal. I believe it was a completely stock (no accents, strakes, spoiler) GT. Anybody here? Maybe it was KHTM's gal-pal that stole it from him.

Two sightings to report:

1. On Friday, in Dalhousie Station, I parked next to a yellow 8 with tinted windows and the RX8club.com decal in the window. He was still there when I got back and left, so I don't know if he even noticed I was there.

2. A friend was mountain biking on the Highwood Pass today (highway 40, for those who don't know), and saw a Grey 8 going very fast. He thought it was me, for some silly reason. After pointing out to him that the speed limit on that road is 90, so I never exceed 85, I told him it wasn't me. :-)

Yeah, yeah, that's it!

Saw another Grey 8 in the Southcentre Mall parking lot, on the south side.

Then, on the way home, saw yet another Grey 8, northbound on Crowchild, just north of Glenmore Trail. I couldn't catch up to it before my turnoff.

Fritz,
The yellow car is mine. I was coming out of Earl's when I saw your 8 pull out.

Cheers

Saw a white RX8 parked in a lot on 10St near SAIT (across the street from the comic store). Two blonde ladies got into the car. Didn't get a chance to say hi.

so today around 4:30pm i saw a white rx8 turning/invading (my area) Monterey Park from 68St. Had orange corners and stock spoiler. Hmmm, that makes me think that white 8's should have clears because they are SO prominent. Asian driver. That was actually the first 8 that i've ever seen in my neighborhood.

Starting on monday, there's this new blue 8 parked at the Southport buidling rear parking lot. It says "NEW DRIVER" on the back windshield. I know you work with me, so I just got 1 thing to say to you.... you're invading my territory! There can only be 1 blue 8 in that lot and that's me!!!! Just kidding, I'm not that mean.... but don't let me catch you getting into your car!

Howdy all!

I just spotted an 8 in my driveway! OK, so I picked it up at Kramer on Tuesday. It's an 04, Ti Gray. Pretty happy with it so far. Live down south (Chaparral), and drive downtown, so you may see me along the way...

Also, there's a v-red 8 that parks in the same parkade as me at ATCO Centre downtown - anyone here?
