Thrilled someone from the forum might of finally spotted me hehe.

Wish I could make it to more of the LAX Meets, so far was only able to make the January meet, unfortunately last semester I had night classes Wednesday. Was planning to go to one two weeks ago but friend called me up night before to go with him to Magic Mountain.

Speaking of classes and school, I see 3 other RX8's at CSUN almost daily. Red, silver and another BB.

Ah may have been, I just saw you were Asian, I was in the sunlight silver to the right of you 2 lanes over. Also I spotted a black RX-8 today around 1ish on the 210 west with Arizona or Nevada plates (whichever one has the desert on it); I was in a white Infiniti I35.

Double sighting in the Southbay area.

Saw 2 RX-7's today. I figured since they are both rotary powered Mazdas, it would be worth mentioning.

1st sighting was on 06-18-07 at 1:50pm. Silverish blue metallic RX-7 (1984 maybe) heading north on Highland near Rosecrans in Manhattan Beach. Driven by middle age w/m with dark sunglasses.

2nd sighting was also on 06-18-07 at 2:20 pm. Red RX-7 (1989 maybe) turning onto Sepulveda from El Segundo Blvd. heading away from El Segundo towards Manhattan Beach. Dark tint so I could not see who was driving. Had a small lip spoiler on rear and definitely an aftermarket exhaust.

No time for pictures.

Spotted a yellow 8 on Valley blvd. parked outside the chinese restaurant with the outdoor eating area that used to be a McDonalds between San Gabriel and Delta. If you're here how is the food? I've always seen it packed but never been.

Oh and to be on topic I did see a WB on the 210W the other day. But I have brain fry and am not sure exactly what day or time. LOL We were driving with me in front, them in front, and side by side.....then I had to exit either Baseline or Carnelian. Wow, that's bad!

Spotted a VR entering CSULA through the southern entrance near the freeway offramp around 11ish. Also there's another SS I used to always see around campus I used to see it leave the parking lot around 10something when I'm waiting for class to start during Spring quarter.

Spotted the same SS (I think) at CSULA; I know you parked away from the other cars for a reason but I wanted to be the jerk who parks next to you. =D
I also mourn the damage to your passenger rear fender, looks like it sucks. =(

I also saw a Grey parked at the grove on the the 4th floor in section A on Friday afternoon. In other news I almost saw an accident happen in the parking structure too, they really need to put some "Stop" and "Yield" signs in.

El Segundo sighting

Saw a black 8 on Main St. in El Segundo on Thu. 06-21-07 somewhere between 2:00 and 3:00pm. Driven by a w/m who was turning past the Farmers market near El Segundo High School. Barely had time to snap a camera phone pic.

Another coastal sighting in El Segundo

Just saw a galaxy gray 8 on Highland & Grand at 8:25 pm on Sat. It was driven by a w/m with a w/f in the front passenger seat. They were heading south towards Manhattan Beach.

If a picture is worth a thousand words, then this blurry picture should be worth nothing. You can barely tell it's an 8, but you can see the red & white smokestacks that are on the coast in El Segundo. The 8 is so quick that u need a high speed camera to capture it.
