Picked Up My RX-8 Yesterday!!

Hey guys,

Picked her up yesterday!! Better then expected. Horsepower is OK, Cornering is awsome, and everthing else is just amazing!!
Anyways, could any of you guys help me out with a few problems i'm having?
1. With the navigation system it stills thinks i'm in Vancouver. How do I change this?

2. The Mazda guys left a clip for my mat under the seat and it's not bolted onto anyting!

3. Did any of you guys noticed the car kinda stinks. It's the exhaust or something. Is this just a break-in period?

Thanks for all your help. I'll post some pics later.

Not sure about the 8 but all RX7s stunk. Strong exhaust smells. My eyes would water with the windows open in my old stock FC.

It only stinks at first, when I backed it into my garage at first it smelled like my Dad's '72 mustang! Like gas BIG TIME!

It doesn't seem to do it anymore, it might be, because I back in my garage faster now that I know the car better. But I think it's because it burned all the crap off from being new.
