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.

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?

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.

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!

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.

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

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.

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...

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

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.

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.
