Our parking lots hold hundreds of sedans and mini vans but along the back rows are the interesting cars. My RX8 of course. Two WRX STIs a Porshe Boxster, some BMWs and a Mercedes. No other '8s yet.

The BMW's, and 911's park close to the door. I park in the back with the other 8's, its cute to park them in a row.

We have mostly SUV's, pickup trucks and Subaru Outbacks. My 8 is the only one in the valley, let alone the parking lot.

I have lots of Celica's, Eclipses, Camaro's, Mustangs, Firebird's, one or two beemers, and lots of trucks, SUV's, pos's, and family cars. I have the only RX8. I've only seen a couple people besides me driving RX8's in the entire city (aprox 65,000 people). I don't even think they live here. It's Great!

Where I park at work, the brand names of the vehicles are mostly Trek, Cannondale, Bianchi, Specialized, etc. My Lemond Maillot Jaune does get to hang next to a near identical one in the summers, though.

Way too expensive to drive a car to work and pay for parking. Most everyone in my office takes transit in. Meanwhile my RX-8 and my Miata wait around at home.

My college parking lot is the most random mix of cars you can think of. While half of it is composed of lifted pick-ups with deer horn stickers on the back (mid-country South Carolina), the other half is rather diverse. I have the only 8, there is one 350z (very poorly taken care of), one Mercedes SLK, one S200, two celica's (one of which is riced out hardcore), a fake Saleen, two Trans-Ams, one pretty nice 300zx, various mustangs soon to be joined by my roomate's 1966 302. There was a Vette parked down there the other day, but I'm pretty sure it was a visitor.

Our school only has 800 students so I'm pretty sure those are all the notables. I still think my 8 is the nicest car on campus, but I'm sure most would probably vote for the Benz first.

I work at a cardiology office so I have doctors and their toys to park next to, there is a XJS Jaguar convertable, Mercedes SL500 convertable, BMW 6 convertable, another Merc C350, and new Cadilliac. Occasionally there is a Mini, or a Hummer H2, or Porsche 911 turbo thrown in the mix. Gotta love the diversity
