rx-8 sighting 60fwy

i saw a red rx8 today on the 60 going east.. some asian guy was driving it... the car looks so nice in real life. at first i was looking at the car from far away and was thinking to myself "what kind of a car is that?" then as i got closer i found it was a brand new rx-8... i wish i could get my 8 soon.. i drive a celica gt-s right now.. ill probably have to wait a year or two before i can get my 8.

I'm glad youu saw it. I was on the 60 todat too, but missed it. It has to be a pre-production model, but it still must have been hot.

my mom also saw the trailer of rx-8's Of course my mom isnt into cars, but she said she saw "a blue one, yellow, black, silver and a pretty green one." And then proceeded to harass me as to why I hadnt received mine yet if the 8's were in the US already.

Damn I asked my dad if he was transporting any cars for Mazda. Unfortunately he said no.

If he was I would've *cough cough* help him load the truck with the RX-8's well maybe after I test drive each car to make sure it was built well....hehe.:D :D

Well in reality is even if he was transporting the RX-8's to the dealers I wouldn't even get to touch them, since I have a full-time(sucky) job.

hello hello! Ive been looking around the boards and it seems that there are alot of us in Irvine. Both RX8Master and I are from Irvine. If you see us around, give us a wave! We drive a fixed up Desert Silver(kinda a dark silver-tan color) RSX. It was on the cover of Import Tuner.

Sounds like several of you are down in the Irvine area.. A little off topic but how many of you getting 8's will be coming to Sevenstock?

I'm guessing we will have a good turn out with 8s at 7stock.

Today on 605

On the way back from visiting Ibfubar2000 is saw the
red RX-8 with Michigan Manufactures plate. This is an
early pre production mule with lots of miles. Notice the
tape behind the rear windows. Asian guy driving, just like
60 fwy sighting. He was driving fast and blew by me. Took
me several miles to catch up to take this!

yeah we hang out right around Heritage Plaza. we live right across the street! No we dont hang out at Tapioca Express. If we want an asian hang out place we go up to my hometown of Rowland Heights, or we go down to San Gabriel/Montery Park area.

I dunno if we'll be at 7stock. Its the same week as my birthday (9/25) so we might do other stuff instead.
