PSU Vacation Property

Hi,

I'm in State College quite often although not a permanent resident. We have a vacation property located nearby.

Hey Dave I go to Penn State also, and was just going to start a group for this until I found yours. I also saw that you camped out for the PSU vs Ohio game a few years ago, I was also there got second row. I have a black sport model and have seen another black and red one driving around. Either of these yours?

Hey guys (and gal)! I actually just graduated in May from PSU! Enjoy it while it lasts b/c it is NO lie when people say its the best 4 years of your life. I come up from time to time, but had my 8 up there the last 1.5 years of school. I have BB 8 with black wheels...

Yeah I'm on my final year. I'm not done yet and I already know I don't want it to end, but oh well. Sounds like a nice car, i think blacked out 8's look really cool.

That's exactly what I'm going for too. I actually just picked up my KS-Auto Burnout kit and had it painted last week. Tint is going on next week (probably 20 the whole way around). Then my black wheels have a polished lip and custom exhaust tips, so those are the silver pieces that I think go really well with Black. Nothing like black rims with a polished alloy lip!!

I am up at PSU-Main

Yea, I have my car up here at Main
It's parked at one of the parking garage in downtown.
I only take it out when I take girls out to eat lol

It's gonna be out tonight... and you know what that means. haha
Mine is Black, its got AP lip, veilside sides, CF hood, clear, fender strakes.
One of my friend has a silver Rx8, the other one has a black one that has stock chrome wheels on.

We should all get together sometime, if possible

P.S. I saw a black rx8 (wingless, had a aftermarket navi attached to the windshield) at east hall areas. I am not sure of the owner.

I grad. from PSU in May and bought my 8 shortly after...

I used to walk to my Business Law class in the new business building and take shortcuts through that neighborhood on the other side of Park Ave and would walk by this 8 all the time and couldn't wait to get mine

With the nice weather today I was driving and saw two today. The first was gray parked on college ave by cafe 210, and the second was a red parked down at the beginning of beaver on west college. Just wondering if they belong to anyone on here.

I remember when I was up there I always saw that red one parked near that "Steamed Cheeseburgers" place on Beaver. For about 2-3 years I saw that one always parked there. I'm still planning on making a trip up there to see my buddies after Spring Break. so I will let you all know when I come back to Happy Valley.

Will do, it'll be after your guys spring break b/c I am going away, but I'll get everyone's names and maybe we can meet up, catch a meal, and go for a drive.

Anybody here have access to a lift or a friends garage up at school? I'm trying to get my KS-Auto Burnout kit and S Tech springs on soon. If anyone has minor mods to do, you can also bring them and I can help as much as I can and the others.
