So I was looking for a parking spot...
So my GF and I took a ride to McDonalds to get something to eat, and I'm looking for a parking spot, and I look straight ahead and there is a red RX-8 all by itself in the parking lot. So I decided to park right next to it since there were about 6-7 empty spaces around it and it was looking lonely. I never was able to find the owner of the car, but I was able to take some pictures of our cars as I was leaving. Enjoy!

Yeh, it was ironic because I saw another red 8 today coming home and I flashed him as he was coming towards me to make a turn and he waved at me. Recently I've been seeing RX-8's a lot more now.

i never get any responses here in sj. I've seen some ladies with 8's (definetly no luck with them). I flash a few 8's and no response. rx7 owners on the other hand never fail to give a wave or a thumbs up.

I have yet to meet another 8 owner going the same direction (always the opposite hence no eye contact). I've seen other 8's in the parking lots and left notes but nobody I met joined the forum (that I know of anyways).

I do the "Pez" or the "subtle finger-point" (hand on steering wheel - point index finger upwards toward the other car). The few 8's I have seen here nearly always give some kind of recognition; wave, light flash, etc.
I do the same with the other Jeep Wrangler drivers - and, as the 8 owners, almost always get a response back.
My wife says...."So, it's a Jeep AND AN 8 thing"
