Atlanta 8'ers?
 

Any Atlanta 8'ers? I have only seen two others in Atl. A blue one I saw pulling into ISSX and a red one at HD Support Center. Those belong to anyone here?

I own a black one...if you ever see one around the state capitol its probably me :D

Gray one here since Sept., but I've never seen another one on the road.

Got a black one and live around Turner Field.. Only seen a dark gray one at the Midtown Promenade parking lot..

I have a Nordic Green and I live on the north side of town, off 400.
I've only seen titanium, silver and a just yesterday, a red on the road. It has been kinda lonely since July.

Black with spoiler and app package. I live in Decatur. I have only so far seen two 8's on the road. One was a silver/titanium out in Douglasville near Villa Rica. The second was another black, on I-95 heading south between Charleston and Savannah.

I got a Titanium Gray 8 the week of Thanksgiving. Loved having a "unique" car for a while. Now there is a black one in the same condo complex, and a Titanium Gray one I see in the lot at work, heh.

Wahoo!

I just wanted to say hello. I picked up my 8 on Friday and I'm loving it. So when are we going to have a meet?

I live down in Warner Robins, so keep me posted if there are any meets scheduled and I will try to come....

I'm usually shooting the I 285 E up to Suwanee once a week...probably seen me poking around Peachtree and Buckhead...Sometimes I stop up near the Glenridge Connector off 400 to see my cousin...

i pick mine up tomorrow and i live down in jonesboro which is exit 228 (i75) and so far ive seen 2 rx-8s, one black one buy atlanta airport near the loop road and another automatic tit rx-8 which got off at my exit!!

I have a Blue with spoiler. Located downtown, can be seen on the north side of atlanta on 75 and in kennesaw all the time. Would love to meet. I have spent some time with the RX& club, they are a great group.

Got mine last week (Jan 5) - black 6-spd with sports pkg.

Live in Loganville - work in Conyers

will try to come to Varsity on 24th! -- zoom zoom:)

I have a titanium gray one. Had it since July 2003. I've seen several around town, mostly red, but only one ever bothered to wave back. :mad: The one that waved, driving a silver RX, was going into the Whole Foods parking lot down off of Ponce. :cool:

I'm guessing the others aren't board readers.

I live in Alpharetta and work over at the Cobb Galleria. I've seen a couple on 400 during my commutes. Saw a silver one going south with me yesterday morning in fact. Still had the temp tag on it. He waved back once I beeped to get his attention. I've only witnessed one butthole 8 owner so far.

Saw a nice silver today with spoiler. Guy wouldn't even wave!!! Seen around 1:00 on Windy Hill RD right off 75. Be a good guy and wave back at your brother in blue!

I'm going to be up around Windy Hill this sunday around 1pm, but I'm driving a black, so I wasn't your phantom non-waving '8 driver.

Bought the wife a Silver one, she works in Doughlasville, GA Hospitol Drive AutoZone, occationally in the south Marietta area, but no spoiler. I work at the AutoZone in Smyrna, had a meet and invited everyone(no show, except for Xavier296 thanks), then had a show on the 28th, this time no one showed. A gentleman from South Carolina was in the area, but didn't enter. We open till midnight everyday, and are willing to sponsor a meet for you all. Just let me know.

I'll also come up for any 8 event.

Let me know please.

I'm the Blue ISSX'er!

Count me in on the next one you schedule. I'd like to meet the rest of you.

Would any of you like to get together for a day of driving, modding, etc.?

Doesn't have to be anything too heavy, maybe just things like fog light rewires or installing accessories. I know I for one am a chicken when it comes to alterations, but maybe as a group we could figure things out more quickly.

Just an idea. I'm typically available on Saturdays. Let me know.

I just got a Titanium one. I work in buckhead and live near Emory.

Welcome. Great color choice.

I would love to. I'm a couple hours away, but would love to take the drive. I'd like to install a spare tire kit, but want to be able to do it while looking on a car that has one.

There's an autox at Turner Field on 3/14, me and some friends were talking about going to the noon session. Maybe a bunch of us could meet and make a day of it.

Any takers?

I was thinking of going to that G.o.T.... I don't think i'll enter but may just go see what's competing...

Would love to have an Atlanta meet, with all welcome. Met a new Titanium owner who is a fellow student at Georgia Tech. I am sure he would come. How bout a thursday at the Varsity? After work/class?

You won't catch me heading downtown on a weekday during rush hour. I imagine a weekend would be preferable to most people.

Probably so.

Let's shoot for the autox on 3/14. We could meet somewhere near Turner field in the a.m. and hang out before we take some laps.

I'm also open to just meeting up, hanging out, and going on a drive.

Its easy to head downtown during rushhour, its just not easy to head OUT of downtown. 2 years of living downtown has shown me that. I have attended a few Mazda meets, including a nice RX7 club one on a thursday night at around 7, and no one complained about the traffic. I would want to set up a meet where many would come though, so I will bow to popular opinion. I have been to many car shows since I got the car, and have only had one brother parked next to me. Must not only be the traffic.

Yet another in Atlanta
 

Titanium Gray

Commute from just off LaVista (ITP) to North Druid Hills/85 - about 5 miles. Short commute kills my mileage - getting about 14. Still better than the 50-60 minute Lawrenceville to North Druid Hills trip like I used to do...

hey mshumaker,
Do you shop at the Publix in Toco Hills shopping center? I think I saw your car there a few weeks ago ... seeing yours inspired me to get the Titanium color over black. I live off of N. Decatur, so we're pretty much neighbors.

I saw a silver on 285E a little over a week ago. Passed me as I was getting off on the Vinnings exit. Mine still had the Dealer tag on it. Anyone?

I got my Red RX8 (red/black leather int) in Nov 2003, but I live in Jonesboro, so I haven't seen ANYONE! I frequent the board and would love to ride around the ATL. I work out of town (below Newnan) which is probably why you haven't seen me. I'll be the one with the chrome snyper wheels and should get more playing time once school is out. (I teach)
p.s. I went to the Autozone meet, but I think it was the wrong day!

Add another Red to the ATL List.

I live on North Ave Downtown.
I've only seen 4 others over the last month.
One was yesterday afternoon, a red one on 41 in Marietta

I have a Titanium with Spoiler..live in Austell and go I-20 to work downtown...sometimes I visit friends in Griffin so you may see me on I-285 and I-75 south on the weekends. I also cruise around Smyrna and Marietta..

Krusty....that may have been me...Silver with App pack and Spoiler?...i am frequently on 285 going between Suwanee and south 85...since I live close to West Point. All depends on what time of day which direction out of Suwanee I go...

Guys...i'll be up this weekend for a project implementation...if anyone wants to meet up ...usually i eat at Thai Diner in Discovery Mills..since it's easy and close to our Central Office...but if ya wanna hang let me know..i will also be at Boost Solutions Fri afternoon and Sat..

What are you going to be doing at Boost?

I'm gonn be up that way on Saturday.

hmmm...what am i going to be doing there...

you do know they are working on adding a turbo to an 8 right?..

Yep.

But what are YOU doing there? Is there a test fitting going on?

more info please, where are they? I'll come check it out too if they are near.

They're in Suwanee.

Take Exit 111, Left onto L'ville/Suwanee Rd (i think that's the name) Go about 3 miles till you cross the tracks and look for Brogden Rd immediately after the tracks on the right...go down Brogden until you reach Brogden Exchange on the left (about 1.5) and Boost Solutions is on the corner...You should see the Red EVO, i'm sure it's still there...maybe i'll see you guys up there...

I'm leaving West Point in a bit and heading up that way...I'll be up there around 14:00 today and noon tomorrow...

I have a blue one. Live in Acworth and work in Kennesaw. Have seen a black and red one arround here, but only once each. Wish they would have flashed their lights or waved.

LOVE MY 8. Had it since New Years Eve. Had fun giving the sales man a REAL test drive.

Now have 5500 miles.

Yesterday (about 7:15am) was the first time that I saw another 8 on the road - from Thanksgiving to now! They were on Hwy 85 heading north in Fayetteville. I was going south in my Velocity Red.

Wow! So many 8 owners in the area, yet I've only seen a few on the roads.

I picked up my Silver Touring/Appearance/Spoiler/6Spd on 4/15 at Roswell Mazda. I had a great experience there by the way.

I live in the Vinings area and cover pretty much all of North Atlanta. I saw a very pretty young lady driving a Silver 8 on Delk last night (4/22) and she was the first to wave! Thanks for the acknowledgement whoever you were!

Glad you liked Roswell Mazda. That's where I bought and I wish I could get more people to go there. Who was your salesman?

Alright..I saw two 8's on 4/16 on Satellite BLVD..any of you guys...i waved and someone honked...I was headed south and there was a Titanium and a silver a couple cars behind the Tit headed north...

Hey guys, I've seen a black RX8 near dekalb county jail. Anybody know if that was somebody from here? Looked pretty good i must say. This happened about 2 weeks ago.
