Oh alright, sorry I didn't research that model so I assumed there were more options. I've seen the 40th in person & the interior is a lot nicer than I would have expected. Congrats & enjoy. :)

'grats. That's the nicest mkI rx-8 variant.... err next to my Sunlight Silver GT of course. hahahahha

cant wait to see picks

Just remember to break your engine properly the first 2k miles and to not surpass 4k rpms until the engine is warmed up. Unless you don't want your engine to last yooo

welcome to the addiction and pics or it didn't happen haha

congrats, welcome to the inequity ;)

Welcome! Car looks great!

Gongrats. I to have a 40th, curious as to what you paid. I paid 10K plus my 05 touring with 28k miles on it. Mine is a 6mt with aeros, trunk goodies and spare. Bought mine 3 mos ago here in so fl. Sticker was 34K. Carmax had offered me 11K for my 05 touring. Thought I did well. They were not selling here. Love the car, better handling, lighter clutch pressure, better gearbox.

thanks i brought mine brand new 58 plate i payed 15K for it with no miles on the clock. I love the handling to it is a better car than the other thing i have a 05 toyota celica.

wow i really like the spoiler, mine didn't come with it =(

didnt come with it thats just bad, i am glad mine came with one otherwise that would be more money to burn lol

Interior pics plz?

:D

lookin good, Im really startin to dig these 40th annv 8's

That spoiler is badass. Come to think of it, I don't remember seeing any on the lots with a spoiler either. I'm sure I would've remembered that.

Damn, I wish I had waited a year. I'd be driving a 40AE now. Grrrr....

there you go some int pics and a couple more

I'm also a 40th owner, with the US market spoiler (which is the same as the normal RX-8 one) and yours is pretty awesome, the interior is crazy! I love my muted red leather way to much to trade it for that though - the color just oozes class from the car.

And I'm loving mine so far, my favorite part of the 40th is the sick wheels! Enjoy the car!

Thanks

Lovely interior

glad to see its an MT :)

His plate has "GB" written on it with the European flag :P

lol attention to detail i like it lol

hmm your interior isn't red. But still nice

i prefer the white interior.

man nice car, love the interior!!

the spoiler is sweet, didnt know the 40th had a special one.

overall nice car and welcome!

for some reason i think the spoiler only comes on the UK 2008 model

i prefer the white interior.


Oh no doubt the white/black looks good though, I like it better than the other 2-tone RX-8 Interiors (red and brown) for sure.





I just dont prefer it over my own 40th's interior :-p

Nice interior. Brightens up the bleak "too dark" interior of ordinary 8s. (Courtesy the little porthole-sized windows.)

that interior is only available in britain, another rx8 model shares it. but i forgot the name of it. it comes in a special color package. (not a shinka mind you)

for stock, that is a sexy spoiler. why does europe always get the good stuff?

really nice car dude. really nice.

i dont know but i like it that way lol.

Thanks
