Looks like it was a good time. And someone has a really nice CYM R1, I see. I'm pretty pissed with myself, as I was simply too hungover to drive out there. And since I wasn't completely sure where it was, I didn't want to have to hunt around for it.

Always next spring...

Yeah- that yellow was awesome... I couldn't stop staring at it. Someday I must have one of those :D
If Mazda had used that on the RX8 I would have bought that instead.

There were less than 250-300 CYM's brought to the US. Very hard to get a hold of, if you find one, I suggest grabbing it while you have a chance.

Man, that is rare. A guy I worked with in Florida had one that was mint... and this was only the second one I've seen in person.

I think everyone that has one now also knows just what they have. Also, the paint was allegedly very toxic, so possibly that means the repainting may not return it too the original color, though I'm not completely sure about that. So they all could possibly be on their original paint.

Yeah. That CYM has got a great body, just needs a motor (apex seals gone). Hopefully he'll do that over the winter and get it ready for next year. I think he lost it racing a viper. Can't remember.

Well, we are trying to round up a few people to go on a late night cruise this Sat (looks like the weather will be great). It would be fun to have a couple 8's tag along!! Details have not been decided yet. Will post more later.
