Black s1 on 26 eastbound right by Beaverton! Think it was Saturday or Sunday. Passed each other few times in stop-go traffic.

Fellow white 8 with a crack in the drivers side rear bumper. S bound on I5 in Everett. After we "wuddup'd" the driver tried to get me to notice a sticker in his back side window. Couldn't make it out. Sorry dude.

I'm actually seeing quite a few 8s as of late in my area of Everett. Maybe they are the same few over and over but I never used to see them. Now they seem to be all over the place! Maybe because I'm looking for them now. Haha

Thumbs up New rx8 owner in the Seattle area

Hey guys just wanted to give a shout out. I am finally an rx8 owner. I got a 2005 for 1000$ because the guy was told it needed a new engine when in fact it was flooded. New plugs and a few hours of turning the engine over with the plugs out got it started. New wires and coil packs and runs like a dream. I would love to know of any meets you guys have so I can come out and say hi

Is yours the blue or yellow one? Still have it?

I see a yellow one around Lebanon, off and on. It doesn't have rakes. I'd attach a pic but I'm still under my 10 post/30 day thing.

Right on! I bet it's fun zoom zooming to the coast. My buddy loves taking his over the pass to Bend.

I'll keep an eye out for you. So if you see some goof waving frantically, embarrassing his wife in the passenger seat, it might be me. Ha ha!

Edit: figured I better quote what I was replying to!

Saw a red RX-8 that was headed West on Hwy 34 near the I-5 interchange about 3:45pmish today, 11/24. What is up with Hwy 34 and I-5 sightings, anyway?
