RX-8 after a few months

Hi all,

Had mine for a few months now, noticed that the fuel economy appears to be getting better.

Car is great - just needs a little more power (I have an Auto)

Saw 4 Black RX-8's on the way from Sydney to Canberra last weekend - thought I was going nuts!!!

.ps Mine is black also.

Bloody hell - I give up sometimes!!!

But in a way it is good to leave it dirty for a while, then wash it - it is like driving a new car everytime!!

Well I try to wash it everyweek. Shine it with spray wax and dry it out. Polish it once and thinking of polish it up tomorrow/next weekend.

Mine is a manual and would do with a "little more power" as well.
