Re: Do you see many RX8's?
Less than a minute after pulling in to the drive in mine, I heard the distinctive note of a rotary, looked to the road and sure enough one was driving past, Galaxy Grey.
That's my total seen since owning one up to 2.

Re: Do you see many RX8's?
I was in Antigua in February and saw one! Seriously!Ainmhidh wrote: ↑Wed Mar 27, 2019 10:16 pmWent 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.
