I have seen a blue one on 128 south a few times in the morning. Usually it's 9:30am in Waltham area. Is that you?

Could be me to.. drive 128 south between the 93/128 interchange to Westood every day

While I haven't personally seen it, I've heard there is another Tornado Red R32 in the Salem/Beverly, MA area. I commute down 97S into Beverly almost every day and am keeping my eyes open.

[DSMR32]

I work in the Cummings Center. I'll keep an eye open. Enjoy!

[truenthusiast]

T-Red in Downtown portsmouth. Who are you? I gave you a generous gas blurp and you gave me the evil eye!

[kiedaisch]

Squaw Valley, Califoria 12-15-04, Blue R w/ two dogs and Montana plates, I was the silver one right next to you. Are you living here now, or are ya just visiting?

[Eurasian]

Saw a DPB R in Springfield VA, pulling onto Rolling Rd, with black rims. Gave the V and got one back. Looks good

[melanotaenia]

where are you guys in MD and VA and how come I never see any of you guys

I have only seen ONE R32 on the road since they came out, and it was on a weekday morning, I think the one I saw was in at the VW dealer for service because I saw a tech who was driving it down a back road near where I live.

Red.

So So sexy

And oh yeah, this weekend I am going to my dealer to see if I can get an R, they have a red one in stock, wish me luck guys, I hope I can snag this thing, PM me if you can offer me any tips about buying the R.

Thanks

't'aint me. I live 10 miles from NBPT and visit often, but would never show such disrespect. Long live the Merrimack!

[musicgreg]

If you spot a T-red R32 in the Springfield area it's probably me. I haven't seen another T-red one since I got the car in February. I'm in Springfield every Sunday.

[R32ick]

Ah, that was you I saw this morning. I was half asleep but how could I not notice the clean Blue R32 coming right at me

-R

Thanks, because she's quite dirty. I know after you warmed her up you took off those leather gloves, didn't you?

Haha, well you were definitely awake and obvservant. Actually I had them on all the way to work...I only work 9 miles away and by the time she starts warming up I'm almost there.

I traded my supermesh for the RC's and some money. I loved the way the wheels looked but I had a vibration issue up front. It was caused by the spacers and the hub rings not fitting right.

San Diego sighting: T-red

Okay, saw a red R32 with a 20th rabbit badge on it in Tierrasanta, parked in front of Canyon View Christian Fellowship... contractor for the construction? Or visiting the dentist? I'd sure know if there was another R attending the church...

Saw another DBP in the same lot a few weeks ago, thought it belonged to the vet but it hasn't reappeared.

[VAsteve]

I parked next to a blue one with PA plates on Vietch street, near Courthouse in Arlington VA.

[R32ick]

BMP last night in Clarendon, Arlington VA

[vr6fanatic]

Whats up Sergio!! nice sweet 16v Merry Christmas

I see a siler R everyday... My Neighbor across my court has one. Pretty funny that we have two on the same street. I must admit however he had his first. Did they ever come in red?? I see a red one in warrington... Unless it's just a dressed up GTI...

Could be me. I haven't seen any other red R's around this part of Bucks Co..

[R32Bum]

Saw a BMP in Oceanside parked at a high school "Home of the Pirates?"

[Rx Only]

Saw more than I could remember, but lets give it a try. I'll break it
down by color, all Chicago area;
Blue: Abt parking lot, AON parking lot (could be the same one ),
Elston&Diversey, Waukeegan&Dempster(Morton Grove),
Belmont&Broadway (couple of times/same guy)
Black: Grand&Ashland, somewhere in NW burbs
Red: somewhere in Skokie (only red one so far )
Silver: Broadway&Wellington, one parked in front of We'll Clean car
wash and a couple more in that nhood (could be the same guy)...
there's probably more that I can't think of. Yeah, I was alert for Rs.

[R32ick]

DBP at Adams Morgan, in the parking garage.

-R

[zippy_109]

Saw BMP in Eugene, OR turning onto Goodpasture Island Road just across from Marist High School. I was in my DBP but didn't get the green light until you were well out of sight.

[Manaheim]

Acton, MA blue R32 is probably me, though I'd hardly describe myself as friendly. Actually I saw a blue R32 in Littleton, MA right next to the Mobil station... it could be him too... he had non-stock wheels on it.

[disc]

Blue one, heading north on I-95, south of Baltimore at noon today. Too much traffic to play.

First one I've seen on the road. Looked great.

[alew]

BMP R32 with roof rack (appeared to be skis) on I-93S, just north of the 128 interchange. I was driving the family truckster (Avant A6), so I'm sure you didn't notice me...

Me: "I just saw a black R32 going the other way"

Wife: "Yeah, one of about 3 in Massachusetts"

[Adubz16]

Just saw the DBP w/ the bra in Waltham on Main Street today. Didn't see me giving him the thumbs up as I was washing the R..

[slage1]

I was on 93 South on Sunday around 1PM with skis on top.
I was coming from Killington Vt. I had more fun driving than skiing.

Probably me. I live in Littleton, Blue R32, and I have the BBS RC's instead of the Aristos. The one I saw in Acton was BMP, and the only BMP I've seen ont the roads. I saw a silver one in August, as I was was going through the proccess of finding mine, and I've seen another blue one, on 128 North in Needham. I have yet to see a red one anywhere but a showroom.

I try to give gesture to any dubbers I make eye contact with, and i go out of my way to nod to the R32 guys.

That could have been mine if it was last Monday or Tuesday morning. They were trying to find an alternator hum in my stereo.

How was it being driven by the tech, calmly and normally hopefully.

[Zwagen1]

Saw 2 today after a dryspell:
!. BMP @ Jason's Deli on Maryland Pkwy
2. RS on St. Rose @ the Eastern intersection

[BlueBombeR32]

Spotted two R32s in the parking lot of the GTLive event at California Speedway this past weekend, one Reflex Silver and the other BMP.

[tjm0852]

12/17- @ 1:30 pm saw Greg in his badgeless BDP R around Yorktown
12/17 @ 2:20 DBP looked like it was on a test drive. You were about a mile from the VW dealer on RT.6 in Mohegan.
12/17 @ 2:35 DBP on RT.6 just past Mahopac Ave. You were heading towards Jefferson Valley. I saw sitting in traffic going the other way.
3 DBP's in one day. 2 on the same road within 15 minutes of each other.
