RX-8 Sightings Seattle Eastside

Since getting the 8 in November, I think I've seen only three others on the roads around Seattle and the eastside. In the last 36 hours, I've seen three more, a red, silver, and a blue, all on the eastside. Anyone here?

Ya, My black 8.

Im in the Sammamish/Issaquah area and run into Redmond and Bellevue quite often.

I see two titaniums quite often, but they never acknowledge my 8. Guess they arent members?

I've seen several other Titaniums around, and they NEVER acknowledge me...what's the deal?!? Infact none of the 8s I see around acknowledge me. Granted there aren't a lot, but I've never had any form of acknowledgement period. (Outside of the RX8club.com get togethers).

Hey, I have the same problem. Maybe no one on the forum ever sees anyone else on the forum. Most of the folks I see turn quickly away with scowls on their sour puss faces. And I'm even waving with all five fingers, so I really don't know what the deal is.

I get excited when I see another 8 around because I rarely ever see them. Although yesterday somebody in my building at work with a silver 8 parked next to me. I ususally park pretty far out next to a Z06 and Audi TT so he made an effort just to park there. Thought that was pretty cool. Need to find out who it was.

I'm around

My black RX-8 roams the eastside, mostly the issaquah area. Unfortunately, my wife gets to drive it more often than I do! Watch for the Washington plate 007DAWG, and I always wave at other RX8's

I'm responsible for a blue RX-8 w/spoiler around Redmond. Been enjoying it since July '03 (it was a pre-order). I usually get a wave back from the few 8's I pass.

All of you guys and gals need to make the rotary meeting in Olympia in March. It would be cool to see some more 8's.

Hey Mark/SeareachGiant

Im pretty sure I see you driving around all the time. You have a spoiler on your car?

Nem,

Ill make one of the meets. Its tough though. There always in the middle of the week, and its a long drive for me.

I get off work around 4pm and with the meetings at 7 I have no choice but to come home first.

Nope, no spoiler on mine. The aerodynamics of sitting in traffic on I90 aren't all that interesting.
