Kinda neat to randomly spot cars 8 hours or so away from where you live and then actually be able to speak with the owner of it lol.

After I left Salem I drove by the Boston Lamborghini and the Audi/Porsche dealer, aswell as seen a nice Red SRT-10 Coupe parked beside an Orange Challenger lol...

Made seeing the RX8 a little bit less special, but I still get a bit excited each time I see one on the road lol.

There are a ton of 8's here in Burlington where I work. I'm on South Bedford St, and I've seen them in the various office parks up & down the road.

I also ran into a fellow 8 owner down in RI by Cobb Statium. He had a nice *** drag bike and turning a 8 into a drag car. He's on 7club gotta find 'em on there. Nice to know there are some 8 owners in RI besides me and dmc haha

haha yeah it seemed like it. I saw you flying in the right lane, then you came up behind me in the left lane, and then you switched over and got off on your exit before I could really check out the car.

haha, and then I would have made her detail it lol

Thanks. I like the color too. Don't see too many in that color. Actually, haven't seen any in person yet. Thinking about painting my calps, dunno if I should or not, or what color I would do. I was thinking yellow may look good with the NG.


I also saw a girl driving a silver 8 a few weeks back. The license plate was like "my 8" I think or something similar. Was driving on 290 again through Worcester towards Auburn. Anyone??

I might be one of the white 8s. I am over there several times a month, and my dealer is Ohara Mazda in Fairhaven on service schedule. (live in Providence)

It might skew the numbers high since Ohara Mazda has had quite a bit of praise for it's service on here.

I know I am not the only WW in New England, but I am the only WW in New England on the board that I have seen/found so far

That sounds awful

Rest assured, that isn't mine. Mine is still 100% stock GT manual with appearance package.

At the moment, i am easily identifiable, since my factor side aero flares have the paint pealing, showing the plastic's yellow color on the tips and rear.

Ohara finally got back to me last week, they are going to repaint them for me under warranty. Just gotta schedule it.
