Mine is a garage Queen and just known as the 8, but picking up new wheels on Wednesday, should have them installed by Friday. These wheels will probably go on the 6 but that is yet to be decided, not convinced they will look that good on the 6. The 6 is in need of new rims and summer tires because someone decided they were too nice to pass up and took them last month.

2005 6MT. Kingston, Ontario. Weekend and nice weather ride. Still have lots of upgrades to purchase. Hardest part is being patient and not spending thousands at one time🤪
I hope you win the lottery, and have all the spare time in the world. I hope all your parts arrive as you order them. I also desperately want a ride along in an actually fast 8.

Lol
It's the slowest 8 I know right now..... fastest it's gone is 100km/hr.... on the trailer 😉
New to the RX8, my mini cooper got run over by a dump truck and needed something quickly. Probably going to have many questions in the coming weeks as I weed out the warts on the 04 with 94,000 km i just picked up.
I'm from Montreal, Quebec
My 8 started as a daily 8 years ago, but now she's more of a track and weekend car.
I don't post much but I regularly check the forum.
Doesn't Darkbrew already have a roll call thread???
That he does, though I feel like this new 'roll call' thread is for people who are still active on here. Most members on the old roll-call thread have moved onto other cars. That being said, Footman, you should post a pic of your 'fleet'! haha maybe even just take the shot that was used in the Mazda Canada Magazine?
I am from Edson Alberta. Love My RX8. Even with the issues I might be having at the moment. I red line the engine and then like a fool I shut it off hot the put into safety procedure. Another words I believe I Flooded the damn thing
... serves me right.... however I am not able to start it again. Have gone thru the de flooding procedures a few times but I but am still trying to narrow it down to what the problem is. I have cleaned sensors and will be purchasing new battery on Wednesday a friend is stopping by to help check my plugs wires coils. I am hoping I can get going so I am stranded anymore. It seems to getting to much fuel I think.
I have all the links saved if anyone could possibly suggest something. I know I can get started and hope it is not to major a problem 2006 RX 8. My baby,

If it is a MT just pull start it.... it will work if you flooded it
If it is an AT you will need to pull the plugs and clean thing out before you will get it going again...and will likely have to use a lot more effort. Disconnect the ESS and pull the plugs and crank till it's not puking gas any more. Then add a bit of oil to each rotor chamber... clean and put the plugs back in
put your foot to the floor and crank it till it tries to start. Release the pedal and crank it and it hopefully will start. Make sure you rev it a bit to keep it running or you will have to start again
