Nice looking 8, go you guys get Sat Nav as a factory option?
In Australia Mazda are still slow to even add it as an option

lol, how fast were you driving? Your hair is everywhere. You guys could come out to some meets and not have to ask for pics. I've already met Leesha twice now and Darkbrew has met her once too.

Drive like you stole it!
I like the first version of the Mazdaspeed package. But the 2nd version looks a little more subtle. Put the 1st version of the rear wing on this sucker and it'll look really nice!

I absolutely love that rear wing! Is that the same as the euro lip one? or slightly bigger?
Where can I get one?

I am The One!
GoesLikeStink,
I think you can ask Mazda Canada and see if they have that lip available. Otherwise you might have to order it directly from Mazdaspeed in Japan!

Leesha, Nice Pics ! You'll love the car.
I've had mine fopr a few months and still love driving it everyday.
Do yourself a favour tho, DON'T let Mazda put that CRAP 5W20 oil in your car, use at least 5W30 or better, and DEMAND that you get the OEM Japanese Oil filter, NOT the CRAP that Mazda Canada has been supplying as replacement parts. Do the first change at 4000 to 5000kms. At least this way you won;t be one of the casualties that have to get a new engine under warranty.
I've had a 1990 RX-7 before and know the current owner; it is still the original engine with good compression at 290,000kms. And anyone that has had a rotary with that much mileage and still has a healty engine will tell you that you want to use at minimum 5W30 oil and change it between 4 to 5k intervals.
BTW if you are getting other accessories like the IPOD adapter, sho around because there are better ones than the Mazda one. I haev the Mazda one and it is limited in its functionality where it does not display the track titles. There is apparantly one out there that does, which is a very nice feature to have.
