I was driving in that area last week but 4 o'clock seems a bit too early for me.... I'm usually in the office until then. hmmm.....

Guess we just need to wait for Bruce to see if we've got our FIRST Jedi Sighting!

^^^The world will now collapse

1 year, 4 months, 2 weeks, & 3 days of this thread (if a 10 sec calculation is correct) and someone has finally seen Jedi.

HA! All of those icons crack me up. Jedi, I'm sure I'll be running into you again sooner or later. My folks live in the area so you might see me again on some random Thursday.

It's actually 3240 posts later!

I saw FOUR Rx-8's on the way home today!!

1) Ti Gray that pulled up behind me on the 5N. I got on the 55 south, you stayed on the 5.

2) Ti Gray (AT) with a female driver at the Shell station on Brookhurst & Talbert.

3) Black Cherry Shinka pulled into the gas station behind the Ti. Anyone here?


4) Silver RX-8 with Mazdaspeed kit. You let me cut in front of you as I exited the gas station.

also saw the WB with carbon fiber hood Snowlf8k has seen in the area of 15 and the 10 freeway. He has some lowering springs, appearance package and some black wheels with chrome lip. He came out of nowhere to pull up right behind me, so it was obvious that he wanted me to see him....Saw you.

Where: a block from Solano in Berkeley/El Cerrito
When: about an hour ago

You: in a velocity red RX8. you honked

Me: in a winning blue with a spoiler, distracted after driving 2+ hours of sacramento traffic and barely saw you before you were already gone. I didn't even get a chance to wave back

On that note...were you James? There can only be so many velocity reds in Berkeley...
