i know its not me but i was in that area about a week or so ago mine is stock right now no wing but i ran into someone the other night headed in that direction (vestavia/hoover) driving a red rx8 his had a wing and we sorta played around a bit before he turned off. that may be the person. i still think sometime when we all get free time we should throw a meet so atleast we get a chance to meet each other. Phil whats the next thing going on that we can get a meet going

Hey guys, just wanted to make my presence known. I grew up in north Shelby County and just graduated from Univ. of Montevallo. I just got a 05 WWP AT. Do any of you guys do any SCCA stuff? My friend runs his G8 there a bit. [IMG][/IMG]

Hey everyone,
I just bought what is possibly the last new RX-8 for sale in the Birmingham area. She's a 2011 Sport automatic in Sparkling Black Mica. I'll be around the UAB area since I go to college there. I hope we can meet up sometime soon so I can gush about how great this car is to someone who knows what I'm talking about.

Guys I have a set of Volk GTF rims for sale and wanted to ask the AL members first. I have a pic on my phone so if anyone's interested send a pm to my inbox with your number and I will send you a pic. Hankook tires will be on the rim with excellent tread. Only about 300 miles on the tires and 800 on the rims. Reason I'm getting rid of these rims are they don't fit on my new car and I plan on getting g12 rims. Asking price is $1800 OBO. I'm sorry as this is pick up only. I live in Dothan.

Spotted someone turning from Hwy 119 onto 31 north today around 1:15. Grey with what sounded like aftermarket exhaust, it sounded pleasant. Who was that?

Also, rotary meet = yes please

I can't believe the same thread has been in use for 6 years.
I have a post from when I first had my RX8 and lived in Hoover. Still less than 2 hours away.
