Thanks Alan - either Friday or Monday!!! I'll finally have it back, and start that stupid grinning again.
No - it was 202 in PA, and the 7 and the 8 were definitely travelling together..

Hey - I think I have seen you, but not today. I travel 202 from 926 to 422 and back every day. But today I saw a sunlight silver closely tailed by a (unknown beautiful color) blue RX7. I caught sight of them somewhere in West Chester, they continueed south on 202 after I turned off just before 926.
THey may have been on route to Brandywine Mazda? THe RX7 had a logo on the back, with a telephone # (but I was too interested in the cars to read the logo!)
ANyhow, I'll keep my eyes open for you, and next week, I should be back driving my black 8 everyday !

Affenage, if the 7 was a third gen, that color was Montego Blue which IMO is an incredible color. I love when my wife and I have the 7 and 8 out together they definitely get attention, or maybe its my wife--unfortunately I am pretty sure its not me!

I drive 202 between 422 and Rt30 every weekday. I've only ever seen one RX-8 on 202. It was southbound and it was before I got my 8. I gave a thumbs up, but they didn't respond. A couple of weeks ago I saw a blonde woman driving a black 3rd gen on the 30 bypass.

There's also a winning blue RX-8 running around Exton. I've waved at them but never got a response either.

i usually take 926 on weekends myself for fun, or to visit a friend in UDel. 926 is a good fairly curvy fast road, if you look on the weekends and see a titanium with appearance and spoiler going way too fast, thats me

too fast? on 926? nah... never TOO fast
I take 926 everyday - from London Grove all the way to 202. In my SUV that's about 20 minutes flying. Did it in the 8 one morning (I leave before 6 AM) in about 10 It is indeed one of the most fun roads to drive - especially the straight up with a 90 degree turn parts...
I'll keep my eyes open for ya

yeah those hard curves right before the 352? intersection are quite good, i had a friend lose control in a 5series bimmer on the downhill hard left a couple months back. i took it fast the other day, not even a chirp from the tires although the traction control kicked in, its fun to go fast without worry :D
