Hope no one objects to a South African using the European forum...
I pick my new Rx-8 up in two hours...

Went to see it this morning, while the shipping protection was being removed.
Titanium Grey, 6 Speed...

Heh, well I guess you fit in here as much as any of the other geographical locations.

Have fun in the car, had mine almost a month (tit,6speed) and its great.

Hows it going over in SA then? Many RX-8's being sold there , whats the BHP figure?

Well, they are in demand. No doubt about that, but import numbers have been kept low for 2003 to guage response.
Some 200 units only.

Power rating is officially set at 170kw @ 8200RPM.

Although I reckon I'll suffer a bit of power loss being so high above sea level.
