Saw several 8s yesterday:
- Silver headed SB on I-95 just north of Attleboro MA
- WB Turning NB onto Route 1 in Norwood
and a few seconds later
- VR with 2 women turning off of SB Route 1 in Norwood, same intersection.
all 3 had factory AP package, all 3 looked stock.


Was in a silver Miata w/ dual black racing stripes and lots of dealer stuff/stickers all over it when I saw the last 2.

(I didn't get it, out of price range and too many things wrong with it)

Calling out that retarded black RX8 driver I ran into going 95 North at 10:20am on Saturday. Yeah.. just because you see another RX-8 that looks nicer then yours, DOES NOT MEAN TO TRY AND RACE IT tool. Seriously. And no I wasn't trying to race you back, I was in a rush to get somewhere quick...you just simply pissed me off with trying to constantly pass me and throw fireballs at my windshield. Just saying.

Red RX-8 with yellow fog lights on Rt 195 west in Fairhaven on Thursday afternoon(around 4pm),and then you followed me on Rt 240 til I turned into my credit union near the lottery building. Nice looking car!! Wish I had mine still,but my 7,REPU,and RX-4 make up for it just fine.

Went to Beerworks in Salem tonight for my sister's 21st and saw a Winning Blue 8 parked right in front of the place as I left! Not a fan of parking my car in Salem so had a friend drive. I seem to only see other 8s when I'm not in my car!

If you spot an 8 in Mass, post here.

Spotted: winning blue w/ aftermarket rims (winter tires?) driving down Moody St in Waltham, MA yesterday Saturday about 3-4pm. You had a pool of water 1 inch high in your right taillight, and the taillight wasn't working.

i currently live around there and ive spotted a gray rx8 around. everything looked pretty stocked.

Thats probably me. I have 19" chrome wheels? The only appearance upgrade I have beyond that is tint. No spoiler, groundeffects. I need to do my engine mounts like now but can't find a set. Till then, taking it easy on the drivetrain.

Saw two in the same day!

Going to work, saw a black Series I pull off the pike at exit 12 with me - when he passed me, we exchanged "aw yea we badasses" head nods.

Coming home, a red RX-8 with black hood and no logo on the front came up behind me in Auburndale and stayed for a while. I waved, dunno if he noticed.

I guess I'm just having luck seeing RX's in my area...

Monday 8/16: Harbor Mall Parking Lot Fall River approx. 2:45pm.

Red Series 2 leaving Staples w/what looked like gold/bronze OEM rims (unless they were really dirty)

Also, same day about a minute later, White Series 1 turned right off of Mariano Bishop Blvd. towards rt. 24.

Tuesday: 8/17 Saw the exact same 2 tone white and black 8 w/Black rims (polished lip) I saw on 8/6... This time on Rt. 195 East in Swansea near Exit 3. That car is really clean!
