Saturday Aug 16, 2008 6:00pm @ Clearview and Northern.

My ears perked at the sound of catless rotary 'brap, brap, brap"ing! I spotted your GG 8 as you headed southbound on the entrance ramp of the Clearview.

Saw a grey RX8 (same as mine) on Essex street and i flashed him but i guess he paid it no mind -- he pulled to the side to park but he had tints so i couldn't see in but it was cool to be driving my 8 and see someone else with their 8 same color and we were going the same way lol

I've nearly given up on this thread, since so few of us find ourselves being spotted...

But I wanted to try to find a neighbor in here.

I always see you along Bell Blvd in your WWP 8 - spoiler, but no AP package. Car looks stock and you look Asian. I know you have an affinity to BonChon chicken wings, because I have seen your car on more than one occasion. Nearly every morning I see you drive by on my walk to the train.

Do you lurk around here?

I'm trying my best to out-do my neighborhood competiton. Besides me there are 3 other white 8's in my neighborhood!

I've been seeing a WB 8 parked under the Triborough bridge lately. It's got a Mazdaspeed kit on it. Anyone here?

Anyone was at Steinway yesterday (12/2)? A gray 8.. I parked next to you in the parking lot!

JBK - the exhaust is loud but it ain't dumb! Nice knowing that some of my sightings are of members. I'd love to hear that exhaust again.

Bayside should host a BonChon and Beer night for RX-8 drivers in the area - now I know of at least 5 RX-8s near me.

Spotted a 2 tone 8 (silver w/ black) with a RE Amemiya front and sides with a Mazdaspeed rear on HEcker St. in Staten Island. It also had mesh wheels in the front and stocks in the rear (winter tires I'm guessing) and a cf trunk with a lip spoiler.
