So Long, Farewell, Auf Wedersen, Goodbye..........
Well, you can officially take me off the owners list now. On Thursday I sold my 04 GT 6MT to a guy in Canada and Friday went out and bought an 08 BMW 135i which should keep me happy until the '10 370Z shows up. Thanks everyone for the fun runs, good luck to you all............

Saw a RX7 at the Woodward Dream Cruise!
Wow I saw a really hot RX7 at the Woodward Dream Cruise. It was Orange with a like a gold metal flake had a huge wing on the back it really was cool looking! Anyone know if he is a local? It could be from out town since so many come here just for the Dream cruise? Oh well!

If it had a Mazdaspeed sticker on the front windshield and a spoiler it was probably me and without it, it would be tdido. When an exact same colored 8 showed up in the same town I had to do something to make mine a little different. But you should have stopped, I love meeting other people who have the joy of driving an 8, they are all happy for some reason.

lol So true. I feel your pain, i'm heading to minneapolis tomorrow for an interview and one of my reasons for possibly not taking the 8 is that there may be long gaps in between gas stations where i may be SOL. So it may be the sebring instead I am afraid.

I don't hang around Munising much anymore, got a job in Ishpeming and cruise those backroads now. Haven't gotten a ticket yet but I'm out of my comfort zone now, don't know any of the police. My nephew asked me how fast the RX8 can go and I told him I don't know, I've only gone 110. My son thinks it can go 190 mph, I told him I wasn't going to find out. The deer put a damper on my fun, I have a real fear of hitting them. Last year hit one in my cougar at 95 mph. The car still ran but the body was pretty messed up. It had to bounce on the hood a couple times and then up on the sunroof. I think I'd cry if I hit one in the mazda, but I have already come close.

that's exactly where my car was bought from 4 years ago. I bought it this past June with only 8600 miles on it, so there are sports cars in the U.P. but they're not always driven.

This is a man with good taste. I also have an 04 RX GT and an 08 Cooper S! My Cooper is a Clubman - traded up this summer from an 04 Cooper to get space for the dogs.

BTW, I'm 51, female, and wouldn't think of owning an AT anything.
