haha thats awesome... its fun to see the older folks stoked about the car. I had an older guy roll up along side me... i saw him tear *** to catch up to me jsut to get next to me... so i was thinking it was a younger driver. I look over and its a dude in his 50s with a big **** eating grin on his face giving me a thumbs up.

Since owning my car, I have seen two 50+ people driving rx8's. One was a white guy near Stanford University and the other was a Chinese lady driving on 280 North in Los Altos Hills.

I saw a grey RX-8 with rotary accents driving south bound on the 55 FWY at about 2pm while I was heading to John Wayne airport. I passed then and then they passed me back before I could snap a pic. Was a brown haired woman, not sure of age but seemed good looking. Thinking maybe mid 20's.

Also saw a stock grey 8 with no options driving east on the 22 FWY near beach yesterday morning.

Either Cocky or blind...
...or in Shock from seeing my beautiful rx8

anyway, I NEVER see modded rx-8's or even rx-7's when im driving my car.
when im in my Gfs car or any other car, I see them ALL THE TIME!!!
I even see some rx8's racing on the FWY, RX8s drifting, lol all sorts of random weird ****. but NEVER when im in my 8
do you still work in santa monica??
if so it might be the same guy i see from time to time.
