Also.. who's got the Yellow 8 that commutes southbound on the 101 pima? I see you every morning and try to wink my hazards but i've yet to get a response.
Oh yeah? Sweet. I'll look out for ya!

I try to respond, but being new to the area and all, I am pretty much keeping my eyes glued to the road and signs. Gotta get my bearings, still, :-P so if I miss a wave or light-flash, anyone, please forgive.

By the way, my rear license plate frame reads: "Will work for bandwidth".
Yeah. Thinkgeek rocks :-P

I am in that area, I come off FLW onto the 101 north every day around 2, sometimes I go south. I have seen several silvers, but I don't recall the smiley face. I'll keep an eye out.

Alright...I've spotted three this morning alone.

-First: was leaving the Target shopping center turning on to 44th avenue. It was a black cherry w/ tinted windows and a Roxy sticker on the rear window. Looked over to see if you payed attention and nothing

-Second: Saw a NG (stock w/ male driver) east of 32nd & Camelback. I believe I got a wave out of you

-Third: Saw a WB driving east on Thomas towards 40th St.

Well I'm driving home from picking the wife up. It was about 3:40pm. Heading South on Greenfield, I spot a LY and then a WWP amd then a TI and then a VR.
I think Greenfield is a Mazda Magnet.
Then last night coming back from Tempe I was driving next to another WWP with what looked to be chrome rims. We were gong East on the US60 around Alma School.

Spotted @ 45th Ave and Peoria.
Not an 8 but a primer Civic missing it hood. The Cf hoods was in the middle of the two lanes.
Guess he forgot to install hood pins.

This is my driver's side rear door. I was not present as it happens but I pulled my CSI skills together and came to this conclusion. They were backing out slowly cranking the wheel. First came the scrap, then came the point of which they turned it all the way. Thus, leaving the F***ING damage.

That blows, Gabe. The rear doors are pricey to replace, and it looks like you'll need your front resprayed as well. Hopefully the dealership can help you out.

Did anyone at the dealership see anything?? It would have had to made an awful metal scrapping sound, and then a loud "crunch!", like stomping on a box full of empty soda cans at once

So, I saw 4 rx-8's yesterday (Friday)....it was like orgasmic.
Anyways, the first one I saw was a Cherry Mica (w/ a new plate) @ Dana Park on Val Vista & Baseline around 11:30am. The second @ around Noon was a VR parked at the Cigna health place on Baseline in between Val Vista & Greenfield. The 3rd was a Cherry Mica w/ a spoiler (a guy drivin) around 2pm, on Guadalupe headed towards Dobson. The 4th around 4pm was a WB w/ a spolier (2 passengers) on Broadway just past the 101, headed towards Dobson.
I should have more days off.....
