Got my new RX-8 yesterday! WOW!!

Hi All.
Just another newbie intro. I got my RX-8 (winning blue/leather pack) yesterday. Already did 310km! It's the most fun I've had driving for a long time! (even though I'm taking it easy with engine run-in). I can't believe just how good this car feels to drive.

Look forward to getting to know you guys!

Welcome, it's a blast, wait until you find some twisty bits!!!

(and then there's the screw driver, wait until your partner/ wife/ mates see you with the front end on the ground fitting one of hymee's kits!! The looks of horror are worth every scraped knuckle!)
