Another fellow red 8 going north on the Dan Ryan, I waved to you, and you laughed when you saw me.

Red RX-8 in the parking lot of the Home Depot here in Glenview, just off of Patriot and Willow. I would've left you a note, but it was raining, and my girlfriend wanted to go (And thought it was weird to say hi to a fellow owner.)

Most of the significant others don't understand our obsession, so you aren't alone

I've run into a black 8 twice in Schaumburg on Woodfield Rd. Most recently was last week. We both took the turn pretty quick from Plum Grove, and then he turned onto Meacham. I waved, but I'm not sure if you saw me.

Saw a silver 8 turning onto Diehl from 59 in Naperville on Friday night. Car was loud and sounded good. If your here let me know what exhaust set up you are running.

Also saw a yellow and red in the Foundry parking lot on friday night.

Yesterday at Schaumburg Mazda there was a VR 8 up on the lift. Looked like it had a carbon fiber hood, big brake kit, and maybe the MS bodykit. Clear corners and strakes as well. Anyone here in the shop yesterday?

If you live in that area, Oak Lawn Mazda, on 95th, is a good place for service.

Really? oh geeez ive never been there, i live here in Oak Lawn and i always pass that area many times. But i bought my 8 in Autobarn Mazda Evanston, so thats where i go for service. Hey alnielsen just a question.. if u go to other dealership, are they still continue your warranty? By the way where burbs u located at?

There have been issues, in the past, with Autobarn Evanston & Countryside. You don't have to return to the dealer that sold you the car for warranty service. I live in Villa Park and the nearest dealer Wilkins Mazda is also a good guy. I had a problem in the SW burbs. That is how I have had experience with Oak Lawn Mazda.

Spotted a red 8 on Cherry Valley Rd headed toward Annie Glidden/Dekalb on Thursday. Looked like it had a white stripe on the roof, anyone here? I waived from my Ti Gray.
