I like it.

The card key is only applicable to Type E or Type S...Other wise than that u got to pay extra for it if it a base model.

Frens,
(1) Mine is a base 4AT model. Let's not get confused here. Car was in slightly after mid July.
(2) Battery is in the card key, can be self-replaced. I think it's active RFID (I stand corrected)
(3) It has "water repellant" windscreen as well, I think/hope.
I paid extra for side airbags/inDash 6CD/18' rims/strakes/rotor emblems. Maybe the reason why the goodwill 'extra'? Tat's all.

Any idea on estimated pricing, when start taking orders for 2007 True Red Style and key improvements from normal RX8?
Yah, am a stickler for warranty and I think that should be key consideration when deciding to buy from PIs or MM. I rather those PIs with no tie-ups with specialised garages come clean and say I sell cheap cheap but car no warranty except maybe if you lose a nut here and there, I replace for you ok - anything else very sorry. But honesty doesn't get a salesman very far in this less than perfect world
