Not an RX-8 but I spotted this little beast 2 days ago. Look closely, it's a POLICE CAR!!! (Monterey Park PD). The freaking thing was also turbo'd.

yup, actual Police Car. Often times, cars are seized for being used in the comission of a crime and sold at auction. The city that seized the vehicle has the option to purchase the vehicle at a 'reasonable' price. (aka DIRT freaking cheap)

Santa Ana PD does this with a ton of SUV's and other type cars. Plain clothes officer driving, most likely someone high up.

The guy is pretty cool.. I hung out with him a couple of times and he joined the forum (Ivans8). But I'm not even setting a good example because I barely post =l

With all the 8's at IVC we would start a mini meet haha

Yeah, but unlike us when HE says, "Officer, I bought the car like this...I swear!" he'll actually be telling the truth.

turbo'd = yes
emissions legal = possibly. That's a turbonetics decal on the rear window, I'm pretty sure they're C.A.R.B. certified with some of their kits.

Seen a 2 tone RX8 the other day in Irvine on Alton. The sides were brown and the top half was silver separated by striping. Later saw a BB doing laps around the block then it turned into Greddy on Vanderbilt in Irvine.
