I spotted a silver RX8 on the M3 on Saturday (heading north, near Basingstoke), but I don't notice as many as I did, maybe just because I don't have one any more, but I suspect there are just less around these days.

I did spot this one a few weeks ago:

It was in the car park of my hotel in Daytona Beach, Florida, so probably not anyone's here!

I was driving the bad boy in black behind it that week!

Saw a black RX-8 R3 on the M1 south bound in the middle lane and also saw a E92 M3 pulling up from behind on the right lane. It slowed down momentarily, parallel to the RX-8 and they both appeared to 'floor' it. Needless to say the M3 demolished the RX-8 and sped ahead.

I’ve seen three in one day today!

No1 I was hoping to buy but turned out to be massive bag of rusty spanner’s in Essex. It seemed promising before I looked at it, ultra low miles but mostly broken and neglected in every other respect.

No2 A grey 05 plate heading up the A14 from Cambridge, hardly ever see one driving.

No3 Someone just round the corner from has got a velocity red one.

That will be the car it has an aero kit on it and I think an Impreza big rear spoiler.

Well done Dave

Nightfire (Steve) and I have seen that around Parkstone, he’s not a member and I don’t think he really has an idea about Rotaries, but don’t quote me on that. He did wave occasionally though.

I saw a Red 06 whilst we were both waiting opposite sides of the lights by the church in Beckenham high street this afternoon, pulled away pretty briskly.

Went all the way to Antigua via Gatwick and home again and saw 1 Black RX8 'ST57..' about 30 seconds before I pulled up on my driveway back at home. None in Antigua but the roads really weren't suitable - some were more pothole than surface though they did have the graders and rollers out on some bits so they're getting better, 'til the next hurricane hits.

Yesterday I went to the ExCeL centre in London to take my daughters to the Walker Stalker convention whilst my wife and I went into London via the cable car and boat.

Total RX-8’s spotted =0

Today’s trip in the diesel Fiesta was to North London & back (Approx 130 miles).

It's when I'm driving a non-RX8 that I tend to see more on the road, and then I have to resist the urge to wave/flash...

Post by **bigpete8** » Thu Apr 04, 2019 1:34 pm

Totally agree, but that's probably because my drive in the 8 is normally the same time and same couple of routes.

Got stuck in traffic with a shiny copper red 04 plate on the M1 heading south with a lady driving.
Looks like the winning Red RX8 in my village might have moved on just as I've got mine.

Mowing the grass out the front this afternoon and was passed by three RX8's

a VR, a WB and a White 40th Anniversary.

There were also a massive number of MX5s etc with their tops down and more bikes than I've seen in years.

The sun was shining and it's the first weekend after 1st April, so I assume a hell of a lot of vehicles have just come off winter SORN
