Changed wheels so look for it with these wheels:
Then again, I am going to be running winter tires on an old set of stock rims.
Just look for a Shinka with a good looking guy in it

I was walking in when you pulled up,and was in the Taco Bell when you guys came in. I was going to talk to you being a fellow rotorhead,but you were talking with your friend,and I didn't want to come off as some douchbag or something. Next time I will though. Nice looking car. I was actually just next door at O'Hara talking about test driving the R3 they have had sitting there after talking about buying a Speed3. I want the R3,but the Speed is more in my budget,but the said the could work a deal at around $26.7 for the R3,so I am thinking about it.

O'Hara was a good place to deal with, I was originally working with them when I was looking for my 8. I was very specific about what I was looking for and wanted something used so obviously they had difficulty finding to fit the bill exactly. Ended up buying from a fellow forum member here and glad they didn't find me an 8 after all! Also was looking for a speed 3 for my wife but they were in very high demand and no dice there either. My wife ended up with a Saab 9.3 and is glad she took it over the speed 3. Pretty similar power wise and handling and we got a lot better deal than when we were originally looking at the speed.

I primarily spoke with Amy King and she was very pleasant to deal with. When we first went down to look she handed us the keys to a brand new 8 and regular 3 (the 2.3 engine I think) and told us to head out, take our time and go have fun. No annoying salesmen sitting over your shoulder nagging about this or that and trying to sell you something. Good luck with the hunting!

Please stick to the subject so all of us don't have to have a reminder sent just to see that you are having a normal conversation; PM each other.

No big deal but when I get an email stating this thread had been updated, I am expecting a sighting.

thanks,

I haven't sighted Shinka 68 all week [which is a good thing considering all the snow we had Sunday/Monday!].

Spotted a dark (maybe grey) with body kit, heading south on 495 turning on to 95.
Plenty of cars between me, on the fast lane and you on the turning lane so I didn't get a good look.

Huey didn't spot me all week because he was home on leave ALL WEEK

Wow how did I not know about this thread.
I own a tg with a stock wing . I also have burnt tip cat back.
I see a blue rx8 all the time on 113 in dracut parked in front of brothers II.
And a few others around Tewksbury when I live.
If u see a tg rx8 driving around in all this snow probably was me lol.

Every rx8 I see I never get a nod or any thing allways old dudes that look like they wanted a 911
Or spoiled highschool girls lol. Now I know there's other rotor heads in mass I better start to see waves or a head light flash. Every rx7 I see I get it.
