I'm Charlotte area. At Cars and Coffee often and with Carolina Mazdas

 

anyone in the asheville area?

 

This is the thread I was looking for. Hit me up if your in Wilmington.

Cars and Coffee is coming up and I'll be there in the VR rx8

 

I live in Wilmy. I have a 2005 Brilliant Black. I've seen a few 8s around here, but I never remember when and where. Chances are we might have seen each other.

 

Definitely have. I live in CR and go to UNCW lol

 

Word. I just responded to your pm before looking here so ignore that haha. I live on the other side of campus at McMillan Oaks.

 

I'm in Wilm.

 

We got another one! Where in wilmington do you live? mxer657 and I met up last week and drove around a bit. We were actually talking about the lack of 8 owner out here.

 

Charlotte here

 

I live in Florida but I am working in lumberton and fayetteville area. I'm bringing my 8 back up after Christmas. Would like to know of some shops in the area capable of handling a greddy trust kit for my car. Any info is greatly appreciated.

 

come say hello on our local forum!

We meet up for cars and coffee often, buffalo wild wings about once per month, mountain drives occasionally, tech sessions to tinker on our cars, we even have a few that track their 8's.

Yeah, there isn't much rotary love in Wilm. In the 2 or so years I've had mine I have met some rotorheads but not many. I intend to change that.

 

Any one live near Rutherford county? I live in Spindale. Ride to lake lure and chimney rock alot and seen a small group of 8's one time but hadn't seen them since. I have an blue 04 sport 6-speed.

 

if it matters im moving to wilmington within the next 8 months. My sister also goes to UNCW and hopefully i can get in after a year of the community college. currently in the ATL

 

Awesome! Let us all know when/if you make it to wilmington.

 

oh im making it! just gotta sell the house in GA. The house will be super close to the university too. "market street" and around there is where we are looking

 

Nice man that is pretty close depending on where on market street

 

ya we arent sure yet, but the house here in GA will hopefully sell quickly

 

I live in shelby....just down the road from Rutherford. I have a 2004 Lightning Yellow 8 GT with Nav.

 

Cool, I've only had my 8 about a year but I have wanted one for years and when I found mine I jumped on it..now its waiting to go in the shop for maintenance so I'm not driving it and man it sucks..I'm trying to find some others to join or start a group to hang out and share notes, I'm pretty good with cars but have a lot to learn about rotary engines..

 

Ive had my 8 for a year and still know little to nothing about them. I just keep my 8 maintained as well as i can so i can atleast keep it for a while. (i hope) 117k miles so far.

 

That's me dude, I have only been in this club a short time but I have already learned some cool stuff about 8's...

 

Having a rotary is truly a unique experience. The 8 is kind of the black sheep in the rotary world but I always go for the under dog. I heard so many negative things about them and rotary cars in general and when I finally got mine I shut up alot of haters.

 

true that, I hate when people say they are a lot of up keep cause in reality if you want anything to last you have maintain them. dont change your oil in a honda and it will blow up too.

 

I'm in Raleigh, moved here from CT in July after taking early retirement. Live south of Raleigh off Lake Wheeler Road.
