Ok guys, I have set up the directions and time:

http://www.time4design.net/rx8/rx8meet_directions.asp

I figured meeting at 2pm at Core Creek Park in Langhorne would be the best time during the day, and most probably the warmest 'part' of the day! Check out the link..I'll update it up to the 24th with any extra details that might be needed.

Should be an awesome day, lets hope it works out, and we get a reasonable day with the weather.

That would be great if you could make it. I am sure everyone else will agree!! Seen 'lots' of photos of your RX-8, lets hope it doesnt sell on eBay by the 24th :-)

Hey Acosta -

Congrats on the bid on your three rotor!!! That's great, and I hope that you will come anyway, even if you can't bring it. Photoes and a description of the build would certainly be interesting to me.

All the best - Haze

Wayne,
I was given a prelim. est. @ $431. The amt. after I bought ended up around $510. This is a six month prem. The Impala & Intrepid are both around $330 @ six months.

Hey, anyone mind if a non-RX-8 owner stops by to check out your rides? I live in Newtown, and am thinking of buying an 8, and would love to talk to some people who have been living with their cars for awhile. I took one home fror an 'overnite' test drive a week ago, and it was sweet--hated giving it back. I thought my '97 M3 handled great until I drove the 8!

bostonm3, I would be happy if you came by and checked the cars out. Not speaking for anyone else, but I don't see what the problem could be. Hope to see you on Saturday.

Sure, a friend of mine is meeting us too, he drives a Z3 so you will not be the only BMW there.

Thats a great rate, who do you go with? Currently I am paying just over $1400 a year, was hoping to find a better rate.

AIG ......WE shopped around and found this company to be the best. They are based in Wil., Del.. We have a multicar discount and I'm (substantially) over twenty five but not dead yet.

For insurance I have been using Erie. They have great rates and better yet they come through when you need them (I had to use them once). I have a friend who owns an agency - John Shields @(610) 799-4777. Mention my name (Angelo). See what he can do.
