NW RX8 sightings thread
 
I saw a similar thread in a diffferent forum and i thought it will be kinda cool to have one for the NW forum.
Since i am from portland area most of my sighting will be from this area.

I saw a titanium GR8 RX8 in the portland airport parking on sunday. I parked my black one next to it but i think i left even before the other person came back.

Saw a Black rx8 driven by a women in Cornell rd in hillsboro.

Ofcourse met zoom44 in herzog meier.

Lets make this a busy thread with all the sightings

pdxrx8 08-03-2004 07:02 PM

Got a couple pix with my cell phone today...my car is the Titanium gray. I used to have a winning blue, but did the buy back. The winning blue in this picture is very nice looking...too bad it's an auto! This was in the parking lot of Home Depot and Black Angus in Puyallup.

I threw in the pic of the NSX, just because those are such damn nice looking cars :) It was in the parking lot of the wifes and my work...along with an AMG C32 and a Porche Chyane (I can't spell) Turbo.

Tough to get noticed in the likes of that parking lot. The wifes 2004 325i looks just plain mundane sometimes!

I think I just saw a Sunlight Silver in Olympia with an awful looking RICE wing on the back! OMG - it was not good to see that. The guy driving had a white baseball cap on backwards. Who are you, and why did you do that to your car? Please pinch me to wake me up - it was a bad dream - it must have been....

I've seen a Red RX8 on Fort Lewis - usually around 4pm, parked out in front of the gym, near the HQ building/Flag Pole. :)

Nemesis8 12-04-2004 01:20 PM

I also saw a brunette driving a Sunlight Silver in Montesano - looked sweet - who are you also? And the one I saw at the Olympia Auto Mall car wash the other day, did you ever join up? I gave you the club's website address, but you have not contacted me... :(

Hey Zoom, that is the third Sunlight Silver I have seen in two weeks! They are taking over - yikes.

dmp - where you located?

zoom44 12-04-2004 02:42 PM

this morning i decided to take my wife's outback to work(horror i know) at just on 8 am in tigard on 99 i saw a Silver RX8 with the appearance package. it followed me onto 217 northbound. it was behind me all the way up to Beaverton. cant believe the one day i drive the other car i see another Silver. i remember now that i saw it several weeks ago at about the same time of day. Anyone?

your right Kevin the Sunlight Silver's are taking over:)

my blue one is in puyallup as well as another one that parks near home depot. its next to that restaurant across the street from it.

i also saw this one that said EMSDAD on the license plate! i didnt like the guy so i keyed his car! the next day, he put racing stickers across it to hide it from mazda! how clever MUHAHA! (i hope u guys know im joking lol)

dmp 12-04-2004 07:09 PM

My wife sees that blue car too - she goes to HD a lot... :D

Emsdad 12-04-2004 11:03 PM

I never see that blue one move. It's been in the same parking spot for a year!

It's an auto too, Ironmedic!

I've started to see quite a few in Puyallup up near 176th where I live...I saw a nordic green (first one I've seen outside of a lot....I LOVE that color, if they had had the options I wanted on nordic green...that would be my color) a few days ago. I also saw a black on yesterday, or the day before...but I seems that usually when I see another 8 on the road, it's an older lady, that doesn't have the sense of comeradarie for 8 owners...they never wave! Either that, or I'm in my wifes Bimmer.

Ohh well, I spose we'll just have to have another 8 get together.

MazdaspeedRx8 12-05-2004 03:26 AM

Ive seen these three Rx8 in gresham. One at Titanium Gray at Safeway. A yellow one right behind Arby on Burnside, and red also on Burnside. hey look for my White one :)


Also while driving towards the coast in Newburg I talk to someone on the road with a Red one.

AAAAHHHHHH!!!!

I just saw it again! It looks like it has a ricer wing off a Civic! The wing is white plastic looking, and is way to narrow for the 8... :eek: :eek: :eek:

I'm going back to bed...

Hey Nemisis 8 I saw that same exact car driving to the Capital mall in Olympia and I did a double take and almost got into a wreck. I was grossed out just even thought of it....I was thinkin how can someone deface that car like that????? What part of Washington you from??? I am hoping to get a blue one next year for my birthday in May. I just want to save some money for a down payment and my husband says it we should have enough by then....

I live on the West side of Olympia :) I'll be at Izzy's Pizza on Monday meeting the rotaries that show up. Stop buy to see the cars and meet us if you can.

So Who was at the Motel in Yakama at 7:45 AM Saturday
 
Let me see, I was headed for the Seattle MC show and was waiting for a friend to head to Seattle, when a nice looking Blond came out of motel with older guy who was driving a Blue RX8. Now who do we think that was or do we care? :D It was motel across from Mazda Dealer in Yakama.

You know the license on the front our RX8s looks like S***. Can we get rid of them??? :eek:
