I feel a bit late to the game, but I'm a Utah RX-8 owner. At least until September, when I move down to AZ for a while...

There are a few people around, some go to slcrotary dot com. But it's not very active this time of year. What brings you out here?

I feel some hope. Saw another 8 in UvUs parking lot, One on the main drag of provo, and one sitting in a parking lot. I dont know if these people are active into their cars, but Its nice to see them around. One was black with a euro front plate on it.

Hay guys.. I used to be there!! but then I sold my RX8 it is still owned by some guy who lives in Clinton.. I traded it in for an WRX at Freeway Mazda in Ogden and was driving down the street one day and was like that's a nice Rx8 coming down the street.. Then I was like Oh snap that's my car.. So I flipped a bitch and talked to him about it.. Haha.. he kept it the same.. lol.. Last year I picked up another Rx8 as a second car, its good to be back.. but I live back in Cali now..haha..

Winter definitely kills the activity around here, there is another local site utahmazdas.com there aren't a lot of 8's but they are more active.

I don't think I've been on this site in over a year! My 8 unfortunately was stolen last Memorial Day Weekend. She was recovered last month, but from what I heard, she wasn't pretty when they found her. :'( I still keep in touch with JT myself, and a few RX7 owners as well. I've done a few of their tattoos, including Shep's "V-0" piece in his ankle.
I now drive a 300C 5.7. I became a Mommy last year and needed a more baby friendly ride after my 8 was gone.
I sure do miss the crew from back when I first bought my 8 in 2010.

I thought I saw your old 8 the other day in South Jordan. Then again it could have just been a loud black 8. I dig they 300, saw it on instagram, my wife used to own a regular touring v6, wasn't fast, but sure as hell was luxurious though. I really like the new interiors, very classy.

Yea its pretty lame.. I would imagine since they own an 8, they might know a little about cars or at least have an interest in em.. It would be so awesome if they joined up and came to meets and stuff.. I think I'm going to start trying to track em down and get em online. leave notes on their windows and what not for either 8club or utahmazdas. Would be sweet to get more 8s.

You promoter you. Want to be a network marketer and make the big bucks? Jk
Maybe its that the 8, and especially the r3 is just such a spirited dream to drive that they would rather just drive than get on a forum and discuss modifications that arent available??

haha, noo. I just want em on the forums so they know when the meets and cruises are. Its super fun to go cruising with other 8s, and I'm sure if they love driving their cars then they would love meets/cruises too. Most of the 8s I see around are all stock, but I still believe they got the car to have fun with, and they would like driving with other 8s. Its a good feeling.

I'm around the Murray-Cottonwood areas, but meets and cruising are not my cup of tea.

Checking-in. Haven't been on this site in ages.

Vegas is a hoot. I went to that meet in 2010.

I had never heard of it before (being from the northeast.) That place is amazing! A bit to Ford heavy for my taste but awesome none the less.
