In passing

Yes, I have read your comments on this site, and saw you in passing on my way to work at least three times. Last Friday morning the black RX8 was only about five cars ahead of you ,also going south across the Young's Bay bridge, before you flashed your lights.

I have owned 10 Mazdas over the last 37 years, including 5 rotary powered ones back in the 70's and early 80's: 2 RX3, the first one I bought new when they first came out in the fall of 1972; 2 RX4s; and even a rotary pickup. Also, my brother owned an RX2, then next a first year 1979 RX7 brand new. In my old(er) age now, I have sort of gone full circle, trading my Mazdaspeed 3 for the gray RX8. It is a little slower than the very entertaining and lively Speed 3, but the RX8 is more refined and the smoothness of the rotary engine is still music to the ears.
