Nashville/Antioch/Brentwood/Franklin?

I've seen that a couple of you are from Murfreesboro, but anyone from the Nashville area? I'm here in Cool Springs.

I think I saw you once then... I know I've seen a green RX-8. I see your forum profile shows Houston, TX. Did you recently move here from there? I moved here from Houston about a year ago.

Gummy,

if you search on previous posts... you'll find that there are a few of us living here in the Nashville Metro area.

cheers

Although I live south of M'boro, I work in Cool Springs. That trip has my 04 at 56k miles already. I don't think I've seen your car yet, but I'll definitely keep my eyes open. Mine is Titanium Grey.

Wow, that's some drive to work! No worse than what I was driving to work in Houston, I guess... except you probably don't have to deal with all the traffic Guess I'm just spoiled now that I live and work here in Cool Springs. Haven't seen your RX-8 though. Mine's Titanium Grey as well. I've only seen two in Cool Springs since I bought mine a little over a month ago. One was green and the other was black. And actually I saw the green one before I bought mine. So really I've only seen one other RX-8 in the area since I've had mine.

I live in Mount Juliet, work in west Nashville, and ride to & from there daily. I usually break the speed limit severely, but if I see another 8, I try to slow & offer a wave, unless I am running late.

Seen several around my area, and around West End. I also see a Ti that is parked at Belmont, right next door to where I work. I have yet to meet anyone in person though, so...

We've just begun starting a club in the Huntsville area. You guys might enjoy that too. I love the Nashville area. I'll holler at you if you do any get-togethers.

There are a lot of us around. the Murfreesboro / Smyrna area has the largest concentration of us, but several of the local guys are in the brentwood / columbia / springhill areas.

What part of town are you from? Do you go to the Friday night cruise ins at Belk in the Avenue? It's $1 to park, or free to walk in. Several of us are at that one regularly. My car is hard to miss in the boro. I'm the red 8 with gold lip rims.

Nope never been anywhere and seen others. I was in Murfreesboro about 3 weeks ago on 231 and saw a red one far away. Only other one I have ever seen. I live in Lebanon area and work in Brentwood. Would love to go see what others look like. I had honestly never seen one in person until I got mine!

Is the avenue in Murfreesboro? I live in the Lebanon area and work in Brentwood. I had never seen a rx8 until I got mine. Would just love to meet others with one, talk to them about what it's been like to own it, and if course see what cool stuff they have done.

Yep, in Murfreesboro. The cruise-in is from 6pm-9pm. It's $1 to park.

If you take 840 like you're going to work, then get off on 24 east towards Chattanooga, the next exit is Medical Center Pkwy. Take a left on Medical center, and it's on the right. You cant miss the mall, but Belk is one of the last buildings, so don't turn into the first mall entrance unless you just want to look around.

Not sure if I'll be there tonight. I have my daughter tonight.

I've seen a slew of 8's on my way to/from work lately. Didn't really think the Avenue show was still going on. . . good deal on that, though! Maybe I need to get together with everyone so I can at least figure out the reasoning behind the parking light indicator being on during normal operation with any lights on. Then again. . . I think the only free time to "hang" is during a traffic jam on my work commutes!

Where in Cool Springs are you? I live at the Landings. I know of at least 2 other RX-8 Owners here, although I've never spoken to them.
