Got mine back. Engine good. Cat good. Didnt need new plugs either. Flashed and on my way.

Got to the dealer on time. Didnt have a car ready for me. Waited for a half hour while they tried to find a CX-7, didnt happen. Waited longer until the Enterprise guy showed up at his normal time (not his fault), and got a rental Cobalt! Woowooo! Was late to work. That sucked.

Usually Bommarito in St. Peters has GREAT service...they dropped the ball this time. Was really surprised.

Last night at about 7pm, passed a Red 8 (snowboarder, I think) in Shiloh, IL at Green Mount and Frank Scott Pkwy. Gave a wave, not sure if you saw me.

I am dropping my 2004 with 48.5K miles off on Wednesday at St. Peters. Funny thing, I received a postcard from them offering to buy mine back at KBB.

I spotted you first Phil. I flashed my brights at you, and waved. I saw you wave back

Eight looked good you stud!

Thanks snowboarder, I do what I can. My g/f asked..."Do you know that guy or something?" and I went into deep explanation of what an awesome guy you are and how nice your car is to match (free ego boost, lol).

I usually see a Titanium Gray RX-8 parked at the Memorial Station Metro Link. I also drive a Ti-gray 8. Recently had some body work done, thanks to a rear bumper accident.

Every single day I ride the Metro-Stank downtown and see this Ti Grey RX-8 parked backwards in the $2 a day lot just south of 40. It looks good. WHO ARE YOU???????

Bommarito buy back

It actually reads " TOP DOLLAR Using Kelley Blue Book Fair Trade In Value*"

To me their "Fair" means KBB fair condition price NOT a fair price for what the car is really worth.

"Fair Trade in Value" on my loaded 04 w/ 7k miles is $16795.00 THEN in the fine print they can take off even more value for equipment failure, body damage, reconditioning cost........

Are you tempted?

Passed a Blue 8 this morning about 7:15 on 64W in Illinois. The 8 followed directly behind me until I got on the MLK Bridge and she split off to the Poplar. Looked pretty good!

I just wondered if that 8 was even on the forum. She seems to ignore me when we pass each other. So I wasn't sure, plus the windows are so dark it is hard to tell.

I think she has mentioned seeing your car a couple of times. She is usually on the fly in the afternoon.

Take the lead out of that boot...however, I'm guilty of it too. That car just begs to go faster than the law allows.

Saw a white with aero package today turning north onto Bretnwood at Clayton Rd, about 7:35 AM. Car looks great in white. Looks great in any color, actually.

Blue 8 on Green Mount crossing over I64 at about 5:25pm (guy with short red hair and beard)
White 8 on Frank Scott Parkway sitting at the Green Mount intersection at about 5:30pm (driver was on their cell, that's all I caught...I was too busy drifting through the turn)

Spotted a black 8 yesterday afternoon about 3:35pm on west bound on State St. in O'Fallon, IL.

Spotted a titanium 8 this morning just before 8am on I70 westbound. I believe it was your car Starsky by the plates. Wife on her way to work I guess.

Saw a red 8 yesterday on my way home from work that was heading westbound on I70 around the Earth City Expwy exit at about 4:30pm. I believe it was you, Waterlogged.

Also saw a black 8 yesterday a little after 5pm, eastbound on I64 close to the 157 exit. Thanks for letting me cut in by the way.

Looks like I'm the only one spotting 8's lately.
