Saw 3 yesterday, a black one with some kind of chrome aftermarket wheels @ 635/macarthur, we exchanged waves. Saw a TG on the way to work on denton tap, it was a girl driving with sunroof open and another TG right before I saw the black one.

Spotted a VR going north on Cooper towards UTA...it had the MS kit. I was in envy...it looks so much better in person, all the online photos don't do it justice.

okay, I've seen this Red RX8 twice in Houston since I've been here for 3 months, normally I don't care, but the 2nd time I saw him I was in my garage taking apart my doors...

Big wing, stock bodykit, exhaust, stock lights

but then when he reved his engine a little I think I heard a turbo, I was still completely absorbed in my 8

who's this red 8?

been to some meeting in H-town, but my red 8 with turbo's at meeting

What time do you cruise mopac in the morning.... because honestly I drive that every morning and it is prolly me you keep seeing, lol.

I normally, stay left lane until I pass town lake.... then between windsor and west over I gun it over to the right lane to exit 35th.

Although you should be able to hear my car.... its loud as ****. Which I have heard is a pretty loud noise , or at least it is when I am in the saddle.

I'm there between 8 and 9, and I try to stay left lane or middle, zipping through lanes in busy traffic in a state where you can legally carry a gun in your vehicle is probably not a good idea (and traffic kills me as it is, don't need to die twice lol)

Saw one of the new reds today. We were sitting across from each other at a 4-way stop in Hachie. I waved, I am pretty sure he ignored me as he was on his cell phone and did not wave back.

I have yet to meet any 8's in this area that are friendly. Most are older and I guess they think I am just a kid (I apparently look younger than I actually am) and that I probably didn't buy this car anyway. Sorry, just ranting.

Clean black...Golfer??..Houston

Parked next to a nice clean shiny black at Cypresswood Golf Course a few days ago. Mine is Phantom Blue, so the two cars looked great next to one another. They both got lots of looks.

saw a stock black on 59s from houston last week and played tag with it for a bit but never got any response to the wave. Also saw a red with stock spoiler between Richmond ave and 59 access road beeped at it on my way by no response. 2 within 5 minutes and nothing...sigh...

Ya, I'm that Yellow 8 that's mostly around North Houston....

Yellow with Agency Power (and so far no cat)... I'll be driving around normal SUV's and grocery getters, pressing the gas, then slowing down, then pressing the gas, then slowing down, then pressing the gas, then slowing down...

I can't stop laughing when I drive awkward, I figure unless the driving distance is long, trying to fight traffic is pretty retarded.... So I just try to have fun... In which I do... cause I drive a Rotar-e
