No idea, maybe more on your side of the state than mine. In Fairfield county I've seldom seen any. Saw a red one that came to where I worked then it no longer came so I presume he sold it; this was before I bought mine. One used to park in my apt complex lot but alike to the red one, no longer was present over time. Saw another same color sunlight silver come out of a backroad to head south to Wilton as I do every morning once. Lastly saw a stormy blue in Wilton here heading back, once.

I rarely see any Rx8's, maybe a few times a year on the road. Even when I went down to south central PA last weekend, through CT/NY/NJ/PA I didn't see a single one.

Weekly locations are decided at the weekly meeting spot. Everyone drives about one hour to the meets so shoe up and we can discuss a location in your area for the next meet. If u truly love your car u won't mind driving it an hour.

I guess that makes me the un-offical "old guy" in the group.... Who would have thought that 47 was old???

We had a lot of fun last night....

I like the idea of the meets but most places suggested are over an hour for me to reach plus being at 8 at night, by the time I leave and get back it's close to midnight on a weekday when I need to get up by 6 am for work the next day. Earlier or weekend meets would make more sense IMO, or once a month weekend meet instead of trying to meet up once a week for everyone in CT. It seems most of you are close range of one another so that's easy to meet up weekly but not so much in my case.

Nice, I grew up within an 1 1/2 hour from Watkins Glen in CNY. Had a friend of my uncles in my racing days who did Watkin Glens with old roasters, not sure if he still does that.
