St. Louis - Spotted 8 Zone
 
I saw two 8's over the weekend and one last night. But I can't remember exactly where I saw any of them.
I think the two I saw over the weekend were in the Central West End, around noon or 1 PM on Sunday, one was black and one silver.
Last night I saw titanium gray ...somewhere between my house and my parents which is Ladue/Frontenac.
And someone who I think just moved had a titanium gray 8 and lived on Conway Rd. just went of Lindbergh, and kept the car right in front of the house all the time.

Is that anyone here?

It might be kind of fun to run one of these "spotted zone" threads so we can see if we're spotting anyone on the bulletin board.

myfuncar 09-30-2005 11:33 AM

Yesterday, Sept 29th spotted 2 8's within a few feet of each other at 6 PM

Black/Black female driver getting off 170 from the North at Ladue Rd.

Red w/ spoliers going south on 170 in the left lane, from at least as far north as Olive to Hwy 40 then east on Eager.

Anyone?

Blue 8 at Big Bend and 44, I think lives in Apts next to Sams Club

myfuncar 10-03-2005 08:21 AM

Robertsville, MO (Near Sullivan) yellow RX-8 spotted in its driveway.

By the way, a great drive not far from St. Louis - from Meramec State Park, which is at 44 and 185 (Sullivan Exit on hwy 44) go south about 4 miles to route K, then go east (left) 16 miles to St. Clair, Mo. (from which you can get right back on 44) Its a great drive of banked turns, amazing views of the Meremac River valley, etc. There's probably something closer, but that's where we were on Sunday.

WaterLogged 10-04-2005 09:14 AM

Mmmmm... sounds like fun. Of course if I were to venture out that way my luck I'd get lost and end up in Oklahoma. Oh well, at least I'd be in an 8! :)

nomopistons 10-05-2005 09:32 AM

I was not far from myfuncar- I was 20 miles down the road in Cuba working on the lake house Sunday. Then we went to St James for some wine.

SpoiledBlk8 10-12-2005 12:42 PM

Spotted two OR maybe the same one twice. Anyway, it was exciting because this was the first time I have ever seen one other then mine period. ;)

Friday night at Arby's on Hwy K in O'Fallon (silver)
Tuesday night at McDonald's on Hwy K (silver)

I would make a comment about your eating habits... but I was there too :D

myfuncar 10-12-2005 12:51 PM

Sunday, October 9, Alton Il, Mica Blue RX-8, parked at...a "naughty" video and undergarment store. We drove right on by, only slowed to see the car (oh yeah, sure). Anyone want to fess up?

myfuncar 10-14-2005 08:14 AM

Yellow, U City Loop, 4:35PM Thursday, Oct. 13th, turning left onto Delmar.

myfuncar 10-19-2005 11:54 AM

Black, going south on Lindberg @ near Clayton Rd. Tuesday, Oct 18, 6 PM

baseballgenius80 10-20-2005 09:06 AM

Wow funcar, you must know where to go. I never see any on the road anymore. Seems as if everyone has garaged their ride for the winter.

nomopistons 10-22-2005 07:57 PM

Tit Gray w/ mazdaspeed body mods turning south on Dougherty Ferry from Big Bend 5 pm today

JDS3 10-25-2005 11:54 AM

I don't see many either.. Yellow (like mine) south of Roberstville. Used to see a silver coming east on 44 from Eureka. That car made me decide to buy an RX-8....
I did see a woman in an automatic blue parked at the courthouse in Union, then I passed her on Hwy 100 near Washington the next week..

Zoom Zoom, people...

baseballgenius80 10-25-2005 06:04 PM

Red RX8 in South County on 270 South a little after 9pm last night.

baseballgenius80 10-26-2005 09:13 AM

Spotted another red 8 on my way to work this morning on I64 west bound around 7:45 this morning about a mile east of the mississippi and bridges.

myfuncar 10-26-2005 04:05 PM

When are we going to see any of each other? Maybe we should all get "RX8club" stickers or something so we can identify.

baseballgenius80 10-27-2005 08:34 AM

Well, I'm the only lightning yellow with a black stripe. You can't mistake me. Come to think of it, I believe I'm the only multi-colored 8 in this area.

That was most likely me :). I have the mazdaspeed front bumper only. What color is yours?

nomopistons 11-02-2005 09:49 PM

Nordic Green Mica. I live 1/4 mile from there.

nomopistons 11-04-2005 09:33 PM

v-red headed east on hwy 44 about 840 am today exceeding the speed limit by 15 mph in the left lane between kingshighway and grand

baseballgenius80 11-11-2005 07:45 AM

Lightning yellow spotted yesterday morning on the Illinois side of I64 west bound in that nice long traffic jam around 7:30 am.

Also, on my way home, spotted a nordic green on Lincoln going from Shiloh to O'Fallon, IL. I was heading into Shiloh.

spdspappy 11-11-2005 09:47 PM

I've seen quite a few on Scott AFB. There's a couple ppl who drop their kids @ the daycare where my son is that have 8's. I've also seen one coming from a driveway off of Troy-O'Fallon Rd.

nomopistons 11-12-2005 03:44 PM

V red sitting on lot next to Sweet Tomatos in Crestwood

WaterLogged 11-13-2005 12:37 AM

I parked next to an auto silver 8 at Buffalo Wild Wings near West Olive theatre Friday night.

nomopistons 11-20-2005 05:53 PM

Black 8 today about 130pm on Big Bend heading east. Driver stayed 15 ft behind me in next lane ,also when at Kirkwood Rd stoplight. I assume he was admiring my ride :shocking:

myfuncar 11-21-2005 08:31 AM

COSTCO South County, Friday night Nov 18th, , nice Titanium Gray with a spoiler sitting in the parking lot.

Creve Cour Camera, Saturday afternoon, Red.

baseballgenius80 11-21-2005 08:41 AM

Blue 8 at AutoZone in Fairview Heights, IL. Just happened to be a chance run in between spdspappy and myself. Good running into you man!

baseballgenius80 11-22-2005 08:10 AM

On Monday between 4 - 4:30 pm on I270 in Missouri.

-Lightning Yellow heading north around Dorsett exit
-Blue and another Lightning Yellow heading south around Olive exit.

Three within about a 20 minute span, not too bad.

spdspappy 11-22-2005 08:16 PM

Nice running in to you as well. Also good to have a chance to grab some lunch too!

myfuncar 11-25-2005 09:30 AM

I saw a white one in Poplar Bluff, MO on Wednesday late morning. Haven't seen a white one yet, it is very sharp, I'd get one of those next time, but I think I'll be keeping mine forever.
Had a great drive down there, also.
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone.

How about Satellite radio? That's what I got last year. Its a gift that you don't just look at.


SPOTTED ZONE - Best Buy in Brentwood on Friday afternoon, Nov 25h, about 1:30 PM, saw TWO titanium gray RX8's in the parking lot along with mine (silver). Never seen three together anywhere besides a dealer lot.

WaterLogged 11-28-2005 08:25 AM

That's a perfect gift. I gave it to myself this summer! I just got back from a 1200 mile road trip and there's nothing better than keeping a station from state-to-state.

myfuncar 11-30-2005 08:19 AM

Black RX 8 with Illinois plates spotted this morning, 11/30, in the parking garage for my building here in Clayton.
Anyone claim that one? Its spotless, looks brand new. The car is really sharp in black.

myfuncar 12-05-2005 09:04 AM

Sunlight Silver, all black interior, spotted at Harrah's on Saturday night in the garage, 5th floor.

I might be up for a meet then. I have been super busy lately and not on the board due to buying and still in the process of moving into my house plus i am just about to graduate with my masters in March so I've been busy.

Katie

baseballgenius80 12-06-2005 10:01 AM

Around that date may be possible for me also. Let me know if something gets together. Nice to see you still alive there Katie, and congrats on the new house and upcoming graduation.

Yeah I am still alive-but I do not want to see another paint brush for a LONG time. I painted basically every room in the house and the ceilings.

I haven't drove the eight much either and went to start the suker yesterday and the thing was flooded. Had to be towed to bommarito. Hopefully it will be fixed soon.

baseballgenius80 12-07-2005 09:41 AM

Black RX-7, third generation, spotted on I70 west bound this morning around 8am. Close to the Grand exit. Looked very nice! (car that is)

nomopistons 01-12-2006 04:48 PM

Winning Blue yesterday west on 44 and got off at Arsenal about 720 pm

myfuncar 01-15-2006 08:10 PM

Hadn't seen another 8 in a while...saw one yesterday (Sat) early afternoon, silver with a rear spoiler, getting onto Olive west from 270 Northbound. Couldn't see the driver, but I tailed it for about a mile.

rxevolved 01-18-2006 12:11 AM

I'm always commuting into the city with my Winning Blue from Fairview Heights. See alot of 8s on the way there and back. Usually silver and grey.

-Blue with appearance package, painted pinstripes (maybe the only pin striped 8 in the area?), and Illinois plates

spdspappy 01-18-2006 07:59 PM

I usually see a Winning Blue parked at the comic shop (green building) on the N side of 64 across around Fairview Heights.

rxevolved 01-18-2006 09:30 PM

Must be someone else with the WB eight at the comic shop.

spdspappy 01-19-2006 06:51 PM

Meaning? You said that you commute into the city. This car is usually just there.

nomopistons 02-20-2006 07:31 PM

red 8 heading e on manchester off of clarkson about 12:10 today. Used yellow on jeep lot at same location(if anyone wants to buy it)

Adamrotor 02-22-2006 09:13 PM

none today

myfuncar 02-26-2006 08:39 AM

Black RX 8 spotten yesterday. (sat 2/25) I think it was turning onto Olive West at 270. Driver was a young guy and he had a look at my RX.

fisherdn 02-26-2006 12:10 PM

That could have been me. I'm a young guy with a black 8 in stl, but I don't think I got on olive west. Did it have a RB spoiler? If so that was me. I usually do have looks at other 8's I see.
