I live in Northern Louisiana and RX8's are a rare commodity. I see way more Z's and Infiniti G35 Coupes than RX8's. I can probably count the # of RX8's on two hands that are in this area. Fo sho there are three blue ones in town. One on a dealer's lot, another one driven by a young caucasian male and then there is mine. I kinda like the exclusivety. |
Here in central Fl RX-8 are not as common as 350Z's, Supras, etc....but there around. But i will tell you guys that seeing my first dark forest green RX-8 was a shocker....dang it look good.
|
Where i live in my appartment complex... 5 Rx-8's, 2 blacks, 2 reds, and my yellow one.... so i see them plenty lol
and down the road is a girl that just had her parents buy her a white one. so umm... yea i see them a lot. but im glad my color is unique tho! |
I have never seen one. And I mean like never seen one on the road and only at dealerships, parked.
|
None, I have the only 8 in LaCrosse, WI. :) No Mazda dealer for 100 miles, I guess that is the main reason why. I do get a lot of attention aroud town! :kiss:

In the 6 months I've owned my car I've had three sightings where I live in the Corning/Elmira/Ithaca/Watkins-Glen area all different colors so all different cars, only seen once each and none of them blue. There is a VR at the local Simmons-Rockwell dealership, but it seems tragically overpriced. I don't have a strong preference to either be unique or have many RX-8 brothers and sisters nearby. I do take some satisfaction in being unique, but that also means no local RX-8 club chapter or meets. |
Not including dealerships I think I have seen about. . . 6 total since they were introduced. I think that would count as not many.
|
I see an RX-8 about once or twice a week here in LA/OC. I think its an added benefit of owning one as they are really so inexpensive for the amount of car we get.
On the other hand, I probably see dozens of G35s, 3 series BMWs, WRX/EVOs every week. |
Other than the dealership (had 2), I have only seen one, and he was just visiting family in the area, so quite a rare experience.
|
Probably more spotted owls in Western Michigan, than RX-8's. I haven't seen one on the road in about four months! That is, before most of us put them away for the winter.
|
I see them probably every two days in the highway, in the town i was from in jersey i would say i was about the third person with one, But now where i live there is a lady with a nordic green which is the same color that i have, which i think is the rarest and the best sorry guys and gals no disrespect just my opinion!
|
Not many around here in Birmingham, AL. However, I am seeing more over the past 3 weeks. I was so proud to be the only one driving a blue 8, then to my horror, saw another one on the interstate last week. They didnt even wave. Oh well......... :dunno:
|
Let's just face it, we love everything about the 8! :rock:
|
I see the same 2 8's a Winning Blue and a yellow one.... Both AT because I talked to them, and I could also see the Manumatic shifters on the steering wheel.... Not that there's anything wrong with having a AT.... I agree with RX8 ZOOM ZOOM, nothing like an 8 driver/ RX-8......
|
I see a blue one all the time. I usually see 4-5 a day here in Cincinnati but maybe 1-2 a day if that when I was in Phoenix
|
Not that many here in the Conroe, Texas area. However, one of my stepdaughter's friends just got a red one, with automatic of course, for her 16th bday!!
I see a lot more Mustang GT's than RX 8s,which is one of the reasons why I bought the 8!! |
On my daily drive, I will usually see 1 maybe two going each way, but in the parking lot, I think we are up over a dozen now. Large company so they are spread out, but it is not uncommon for four or five of us to park near each other. Still no where near the number of 350z's, G35's (sedan and coupe) and STi's that I see on a daily basis, so that makes me feel better.
|
I rarely see any 8's on the road when I'm driving my 8. I see them every once in a while when i'm driving my truck. Yesterday I saw three. But I would say I see an average of 5 rx8s a week.
|
I Love my car and anyone who would try and take it away from me would be hunted down and killed :)

Hey now, don't be bashing on automatics, i got one, i'm a male, and the reason being is cause i have a bad knee that hurts too bad when with constant pushing of a clutch...automatic is still good to go in my book!
|
^but you have a legit excuse
|
Here on Goodfellow AFB TX, there are 4 8's that ive spotted, a TG(mine), and VR, WB, and a BB. Surprisingly mine is the only GT MT outta the bunch.
|
Up here near Buffalo I've seen a Winning Blue a few times (lives nearby). Other than that I hardly ever see them. Coming home from work one day I was determined to spot an 8, I was looking like crazy, spotting nothing at all until I was getting off the highway a few blocks from my house and finally spotted a Titanium Gray, so that made my day. (I know I'm easy to please!) :)
|
I live in the Twin Cities (Minneapolis/St. Paul), and have only seen one 8 in the 5 months I've had mine. It could be because its winter. However, I do see atleast 5 350Z's everyday, even more Sti's, and Evo's are like a cavalier up here. I could never justify the 37 g's on a car I see at every stop light.
