We still know how to drive it like we stole it, and if you ever see a lightning yellow GT zoom by you with a rather large man with a dignified salt & pepper beard,
you'll know there ain't no carbon in that bad boy.
lol i meant no offense sir, a very good point but not always the case. i hope you dont think i automatically assume all elderly people do that

Whoa, that's just way too polite. Most old farts do drive like a bunch of antiquated road blocks. I like to think we are the exception!! We just know how annoying it is to get ticketed so we're a bit more cautious about when and where. Old Bastards Rule!!!

Yeah, I would have told you to shove it.Lol. 53 I win but I bet there's a few older ones (I hope)!
There are 3 8's in Kerikeri so I only spot the ones I know. Quite exciting when there is a new one spotted.

Im new here and hardly even post (if at all) but Im in the northern part of california. I live in Sun Valley CA. Would be nice to get back into a car scene. My background story, to be short, this RX has been my lowest powered car Ive owned. But its has its moments that it makes me smile, I drive a black on black stock RX8. My name is ken, and sorry if I dont post quickly, I got myself into this car to build my credit. lol

Edit: As I let my mind get excited with the thought of being exposed, and I searched and there where times I thought it was me in those pictures but none of the BB had my spoiler or anything that my car has lol such a let down!

Blocked by another car I was able to catch a glimpse of a white 8 zooming by me at the intersection of whittier and painter going up painter the opposite direction while I was at a light right before 4 o'clock yesterday. Modified exhaust forsure. Just 30 minutes ago passed by a yellow 8 on whittier blvd heading the opposite direction headed toward pico rivera. I wasn't in my car.
