SA Town


I live near S.WW White and Southcross by Brooks AFB.
I bought my 8 in SA around Nov. and drove it to North Carolina were I am stationed. I am US Marine currently in Haiti. I will be back in SA in the beginning of Aug. for good. Taken my car down Military Dr. and Commerce. Looking to join a club when I get back.



66 days til I am out of the Marine Corps


Also: My cousin is the head Mazda tech. in SA. When the 8 came in he had to go two month class on it. So if you need something when I get back. holla!!

Well, our furniture and stuff was finally delivered on Friday. We're still unpacking a few rooms (haven't found bedroom linen yet!), but we're starting to get settled in. Hopefully by next month I'll have more time to socialize. :D

You need to eat lunch, right? Why not just stop by Buck's Landing for lunch today @ 11:30 for the Meet & Greet?

I saw a Blue RX8 @ North Star mall earlier this week w/ an exhaust I hadn't seen before (it was more of a rectangle than a circle). I tried to leave my business card w/ info about this forum as well as the Alamo RX Club, but the security guard removed it (long story... I'll be contacting mall management about that one). I've also seen a green 8 quite a few times up here on my side of town (NE) w/ the license plate hld fst. Are either of you on here???

Hi, All:

I just got my Silver AT/GT this weekend (6/6) from World Car. I'm out in Boerne, work 1604/I-10. Commute's a LOT more fun!! I'm looking forward to meeting you guys! I haven't seen any RX-8s in SA yet, so I'll keep my eyes peeled.

I saw a titanium at Ingram Mall on Friday - parked along a berm near JC Penney, I think. My vRed was parked at the end of the row and was absolutely FILTHY!

Body Shops

I've had it...who are the best body shops in San Antonio? I'm talking real artists who take pride in their work. Thanks.

I bought an Alvarez that sounds BEAUTIFUL! I bought/stole (GREAT price!!!) it from Hermes on San Pedro.
I'm not sure about the body shop thing. I've heard Jack's Paint Place in Converse is really good.

Sorry about the delayed post btw... I'm not sure why I didn't get the e-mail saying that it was there (6/13).

FYI: I'm leaving town here very soon and moving to the St. Louis area. I wish all of you the best! Please keep up the RX group. I've set it up so it's automated for some of the events, but anyone can add... Someone needs to pick up the ball!!!
