Hey everyone! I'm new to the site and just wanted to introduce myself. I'm 18 and live in Huntsville, Alabama. I drive an automatic 2005 Mazda RX-8. I just recently got it for a graduation gift. Here's some pics:





It's great to be a part of the RX-8 community!

I wish I had some pics up but I'm unable at the time....

Interior-- stock interior red and black ,bose system , Hard wired radar and GPS into ignition...

Exterior--stock except for greddy catback exhaust, clear side markers with white LED, and carbon fiber painted black eyelids, red painted calliper and rotors but im looking into getting the rx8 stencils and painting them black with red stencil rx8 symbol...

Under the Hood- stock (looking into the AP pulley??)


like I said any suggestions would be greatly appreciated thanx alot!

Welcome!
Suggestion......take off the wind deflector now as it's easy and the longer it stays on there the more it will end up scratching the top. You will eventually not want to have it there IMO, so you might wanna get rid of it now.
Oh.................and clear corners will really make a difference as well.

Nice ride though! Again............Welcome to the addiction!

Yeah, they actually didn't.

But I love my auto. The 8 is an amazing car. What made me decide to get this auto is the amount of features it has for the price. I got one heck of a deal on it.
