Silver headed east on the 101 8:25am Mon morning

Okay as I was merging onto the 101 from Cave Creek heading east there was a silver in the far right passing lane (as we should be ) . Silver GT (sunroof was open), and OEM spoiler. I"m pretty sure it was not a personalize plate.

Anybody here?

I saw you :D

North bound 51 appx 5:45pm; Titan exited @ Shea Blvd

Spotted a titan gray going north bound 51 aka Squaw Peak Pkwy today Friday around 5:45-5:50pm. You exited on Shea - Titan w/OEM spoiler but I couldn't catch anything else in such short time

You know, you don't realize how freaking HOT these cars look in motion until you get to observe others while driving. Mesmirizing I say

I saw you :D

Pret - OUCH sheeeesh! I did the 15k and paid like $260? And no spark plugs even! Oh well...

Black 8; S. bound 101 during high speed car chase

So Thur morning Aug 3 I'm watching the news and there's a high speed car chase on the west side of town. Pretty soon the clown gets up on the 101 headed south. I'm watching for like 10 mins and suddenly the guy is passing a black 8 that's driving in the passing lane, around 8:15 or so. It was around Grand Ave or so. No spoiler but I couldn't catch anything else. Anyhow, that 8 got some air time while police were in persuit of the nutty driver. Whow might it have been?

I saw you :D

Lightening Yellow, Thur 8/4 @ 9am, Squaw Peak & Glendale

You were on the Glendale off ramp and apparently make a U-turn at the light to head back north bound on the 51. I do believe you had a spoiler and for sure you had tinted windows, but I was 3 cars back and couldn't see much. That color us unmistakable tho

I saw you :D

Whats up 09Factor, seen you on AZMC Forum. I was beginning to think there werent many 8's here but apparently you all live/work in the West Valley and seeing as how I live in "The Creek" (Queen Creek) and work in All-White-Tukee it makes sense now. Well anyway I just joined this forum and if you see a Yellow 8 with black wheels, give me a wave. Always up to hear about any runs or meets so post if you hear about anything.

Now come to think about it, I remember seeing a Yellow 8 w/ dark rims headed west on the 101 before hitting the 17 north. This was about a month ago on a monday.
Of course I was heading east. maybe this was you. :D

EXPLSIV plate; Red FD spotted Sun 5:45pm Cave Creek & Union Hills

I spotted a gorgeous red FD going north on Cave Creek Rd from Union Hills past Deer Valley (I had to turn off). Love your plate EXPLSIV and your FD is absolutely beautiful and clean clean clean. I was in the titanium 8 that honked and flashed a peace sign as we exchanged leads heading north. Anybody here know this person from RCCAZ maybe?

I saw you :D

Mac,

Was your car by chance at the Scottsdale Pavillions last night? I left a club card under the wiper blade of a yellow RX-8 with black wheels and a black Mazdaspeed style rear spoiler. I was driving the Yellow Gen 3.

yes! I got it, Ive signed up there as well but there doesnt appear to be a Forum, I didnt see your car but thanks for leaving the card. there was a gray 8 parked next to me also when i returned from Mcd's. i was up there with the SRT-4 club since my old roomate was rolling with them and I couldnt find anyone else to roll with. I was going to go to that BBQ but was under my car the better part of the day. let me know next time you roll up there, or anywhere for that matter, and ill be there.
Wish i would have see your car there.

Black & 32nd St, heading east

Black w/OEM spoiler & rotary accents east bound on Bell Rd. I think you pulled up next to me at 7th street but I was looking at a Mazda 3 in the left turn lane and looked away as a car pulled up in my line of sight, then a cop behind that. Next think I know I'm looking straight ahead and there's a black 8 in front of me and I'm all DUH!! You probably were the car that pulled right next to me weren't you.

I finally caught up in traffic and the guy driver and I exchanged peace signs and thumbs up as I turned north onto 32nd. 'Bout time I ran across another friendly 8 driver out there!

I saw you :D
