wow 2 white RX8, I have never seen a white RX8 in person before. Yes, I agree most people driving the 8 tend to be older people... some have no idea of its potential.

I was behind a TiGrey yesterday on westbound Glenmore Trail. He turned onto Highway 8. License plate said "IPPON".

He must have had a 2005 or later, since the trunk had the mini-spoiler built in.

spotted a silver Rx8 with OEM appearance kit and exhaust last night on crowchild!! If you are on this board nice car and just wondering what exhaust was that because it sounded beautifulllllll i'm going to guess racing beat.

i tried to catch up to you but you were blasting down crowchild at 120k/h+ and i couldn't bring myself going over 100 after that $380 speeding i got the other day ><

spotted a black RX-8 on Southbound Deerfoot Trail just south of 130 Avenue today at around 11:15. Very nice 8, never seen a black 8 on the road before. I was going the other way, returning from Okotoks.

I saw a black one today too, Mazdaspeed rims and all about 6pm on 22X. We smiled at each other, FINALLY someone that has a clue! I also followed a CR into my neighborhood the other day, note to driver *I lived here first*

Cloud, are you in the Okotoks area often? I see a white one every few days around the overpass off Hwy 2, maybe its you?

I haven't been at Okotoks for a month now, so it must be someone else. Actually I rarely go south past the Barlow Trail Interchange on Deerfoot.

So I finally saw the dude in the black cherry Shinka with the MS spoiler in downtown after work the other week. (And I thought I was imagining the MS spoiler!) Turns out he's an older fellow and I gave him thumbs up, but I was in my other car and he must've thought I was nuts!

Hehe, cool...

The WB is either me or my brother....he drives it a bit more often than I do in the summertime, since I have no school right now...
