Guess it's my turn.

Saw a SB Z on Blacow in Fremont with ADR rims with no license plates yet. It was yesterday around 11 am.

Also saw a Z, too cark to tell color, but had the 3 LEDs on the reflectors and it is in Foster City around 10.30 pm yesterday.

Saw a LMS today at lunch in the parking lot of AMC Mercado 20 at 12:30 and then saw a CS in the parking lot at Eastridge mall near Macy's at 6 p.m. All parked Z's today...no sitings on the road. There are more and more of them around.

Oh on a different note, I know this is a Z forum, but man I saw the new blue mazda rx-8!!! That's the first one I saw in the flesh.

Looks pretty small in person. Nice, but no torque....

80 East (right after the junction to 80E and 580W)

Any of you subscribers to this board?
Yea MGV156 was right this could have been me. Not in that area often but a few of us came down the backside of Mt Hamilton a couple of Saturdays ago and ended up in Livermore. Mine is CS and my plate if ZYOULTR.

OK there's a white w/ 17" rims outside my apartment off shoreline in Mt View. It's been there for like a week so I'm pretty sure they live in my complex.
Also saw a brand new SS with Stanford Nissan Plates turning onto Shoreline.

Hey manoagrrl, why haven't you not show up to our meets yet...
We need more fresh blood at the meets not to mention girls that drives Zs. And of course, the most important fact that we rarely have any ppw


oh and to keep this thread consistant.
Saw a brickyard off castro in Mountain view last night around 8pmish

Are there any other girls that attend the meets? How many girls are on this forum? (hmmm...I guess that's subject for another thread)

Oh I always get the meet info too late...I always miss out. So when's the next one?

I didn't see any Z's today (shockingly enough cuz they're everywhere). I drove up to Emeryville and Berkeley today, not a Z in sight. Oh well...

Like both Moodie and MGV156 said, there are two events coming up. Also, I'm planning on setting up a Mt. Diablo run sometime in August. Hope to see you at one of these events... As far as getting the info too late, I'll personally pm you the info before the next meet

back the main thread.
been hiding in my cube for a couple of days now... so haven't seen any Z except the db and lms on my Bridgestone poster in my cube

Default Saw superblack last evening on 237

Drove next to this guy in new DB for a while but guy was concentrating too much on his driving and driving very slow (must be under 1200 miles).

Saw a DB coming from 85 going to maude a couple days ago at lunch time. I have seen a DB driving up & down mathilda ave. Maybe same person.

I have seen this asian girl in ppw driving in milpitas, couple times we crossed each other on main st.

Saw new SS on 80E just past the Ashby exit at around 12:40 noon. Had dealer plates. Gave him the thumbsup and he returned the gesture.

Maybe he will be a member here in the near future.

I saw a Silverstone on Warmsprings X close to Scott Creek in Fremont. And then right behind him was a DB about 300 feet back. I think they were together. But the Silverstone flashed me his brights. I tried to wave quickly but he caught me off gaurd and i don't know if he saw it. I waved at the DB too. He was looking at me I know. This happened on Monday the 21st of July at about 10:00 AM. I bet you guys are here!!

I was leaving home from work today, I saw a LS on Montague Express Way, we were just crossing 1st street. This is in San Jose. He came up next to me and gave me a wave and I nodded.

Saw a CS driving down Alum Rock at about 5 p.m. today. Might've been driving down from Mt Hamilton. Too bad I wasn't in my Z I was in another car.
