My dream car.. Finally!

Hellooo RX8 club!

I'm very happy to announce that I have just purchased a 2005 rx8 GT 6speed!!
This is the newest car I have ever owned and I am hoping to take ownership within the next week or so.
The Rx8 has been on my radar since before it was released...

I had(still have) a 1994 Mazda MX6 LS mtx that I drove for 6 years and actually used to race it in the quarter mile before she got a little too rickety for it.
Lots of great stuff was done to it from tranny and engine work, to bolt ons and suspension, and Nitrous.

This new RX8 is so clean that I don't feel the need to modify it. (easy to say since I haven't even gotten the car yet!)
Any good deals on a pearl white Xmen Wing out there? :P

Anyway, I just wanted to say hello to everyone and wil look forward to some possible meets in the future.

Now I must go research!!

Thanks.

lol, well I guess you could say I'm just excited to have it, and the RX8 from Xmen is quite memorable. I do like the upswing look of that wing on it too.

needless to say I have to look around and see what's available, but I am of the belief at the moment, that it is all I want to do to it. (slap on a wing)

And no, it's not black, it is Pearl white on Black leather.
Why would I regret anything but black? (/confused)

Thank you for the warm welcome gentlemen (and lady, I think) :P

Black color = evil, mystery
Black with black rims = more evil, more mystery
Black with gold rims = devil with money

Beers!
