So in all reality, there are no other 8 owner/forum members in NE/central PA. Wow, thats really depressing. Aside from the fact that i always get compliments on the car because...well there are none around here.

I was speaking purely about my direct area 200. Meaning places like shamokin, selinsgrove, mt carmel, tharptown, ranshaw, sunbury, danville, elysburg. The majority of you guys are in places like scranton and wilkes barre.

They aren't forum members as far as i know. Everytime i see an 8 in this area i wave and if i have time i try n flag em down but it seems no one waves back. 8's are far and few between around here.

I literally drive through sunbury everyday on my way to work damn near 7 days a week. Right around 230p and if im not workin a double i come back through around 1115pm. i'll actually be driving through tonight on the way home. Im the only black 8 in the area with the rotor on the hood orange.


Edit: Do you live above the auto shop? Or work at the Auto shop?

I see him over there a lot, i only caught him 1 time in traffic. I tried to get his attention but to no avail. Thats why i assumed the 8's (limited as they may be) in this area are not owned by forum members

Hawkins in Sunbury is awesome. I hear nothing but good things come out of that place and they have a good group of people working there.

Hey guys...I'm across the bridge from you with a Black 8 in Selinsgrove. She hasn't been out of the garage since the end of last year though...winter is a pain. But maybe when I get her up and running again...who knows what will happen.

I work in selinsgrove, so more than likely i've passed yours at one point or another as well.

Like i said earlier, im the only RX8 in the area thats black with the orange accent on the hood.

That will soon be changing though as im moving to trevorton at the beginning of August. I'll also be changing houses at work, so i'll no longer be going to selinsgrove unless absolutely necessary.. I'll also be ordering a new hood, fenders, wheel spacers, tein basics and quite a few other things. Im thinking about going with midnight blue for the accents instead of orange.

I saw a Grey 8 today just past the Selinsgrove speedway. I was in my work vehicle, beeped and waved. Sadly no response.

Not sure what mountain you are referring to, but possibly this: https://www.rx8club.com/ne-rx-8-foru...n-meet-253277/

If it was a black Miata with a red hardtop leading a silver BRZ, and 3 8s, Lightning Yellow, Brilliant Black, and Winning Blue, that was us. We saw a silver 8 passing us in the middle of Shamokin after our first run at the Turkey Hill.

I actually used to daily drive my 8 and use it for work. I was out in Sunbury a few times. It sat across the street from randomly a skate park. It was probably the only yellow one out there.
