So sorry.
But I seemed to have got her started on blinking the lights now.
Another innocent person being drawn into the world of RX-8 fanatics.
woooohoooo
Haha Sucker!!

Brand New Copper Red Shinka!

Ok, Ok, I didn't see it on the road.
Was at Avondale Mazda getting my brakes replaced. This was in the showroom!


Of course I still love my NG! Oh, and they LOVED my new CorkSport exhaust!

Did you see the little "mini-meet" (they called is a "mystery meat") that crashed the Mazda 3 party while you were there?

[Was at Avondale Mazda getting my brakes replaced. [/QUOTE]swtblnde,

Everyone loves my CorkSport exhaust, too! Meanwhile, I may need my brakes done soon, too. Can you tell me 4 or two wheels, and the charges? PM if you don't want to announce it.

I may have to take my WB to Showcase, so I want to have a comparison. Thanks, a lot, in advance.

Hi Blue-J! It was the front brakes, and there was NO charge. There's a new TSB out on the 18" wheels, so if they're squealin take it in! Poolside just had hers done too, at Showcase. Call and make an appointment. Avondale had to put aside mine so no one else would get them .

I was there and saw your car(RCCAZ and plate were dead giveaways), thought you might like to know that the service manager(I think thats who it was) rev'd up the engine a bit after getting in it(nothing brutal but It wasn't necissary).

Spotted a Silver on the East bound US60 just before Ironwood.
Had "Class of 2006 " written on the windows.
This was about 6:45pm

You were there?? Why didn't you say hi?? It's ok.
I was there in the rental car when he reved it up. I asked him to, so I could hear it from outside the car. It's all good.

Were you there with the AZMC group? I wish I would have seen you guys, but I did see Lisa when I came to pick her up. I liked the "Mystery Meet" idea.

Hope to see you next time!

Silver with spoiler and dent on the left side of back bumper next to me at the red light - Ray & McClintock. Tried to get her attention but she would not even look our way - dang - thought people with an 8 would be the fun and friendly type.

Titanium North bound on 44th Street/Indian School. I was South bound. Waved, but we passed too quickly, don't know if you saw me.

I saw you!

I played "tag" on the AZ51 with a NG yesterday morn, and the same on the day before. Still, driver of NG never responded to waves, and used the carpool lane before 9 AM. That's a $400+ fine, I hear.
