There's recall for the leaky tail-light. Shouldn't cost you anything at a dealership. Supposedly they fixed it for '06 & '07. Mine are still high-and-dry.

My wife's made other plans for me today, guys. I have to have firm plans at least a day in advance for it to work for me- my days are never unstructured unless I'm on vacation.

We need to set a date and time a couple of weeks in advance, to give everyone a chance to plan for it.

Next time I guess, sorry!

Ok.. Guys... Its a Wrap for me... after a year and a half with my galaxy, my wife got her way and I had to trade in my love (De Ocho.) I have 3 kids so the 8 does not fit my whole family. A couple of weeks ago my wife's SUV had to be in the shop for 4 days and we where all stuck at home because my car cannot fit everybody... This was the straw that killed the camel. Her simple point on "it does not fit the family" (in a nagging naisley voice) was her trump card that I could not beat. Also in light of our situation with her car and all. I could not overcome the power and visiousness of this argument, and the evil intent on how and when she made that attack on us. (the 8 and myself) In a long painfull battle of words with "The Hammer" (my wife) I fell in battle as my love (de Ocho) was stripped from my cold dead hands. I was dispatched by the skill in wich she swung the Broad sword she yealded whos blade was etched with her arguement. Needless to say, this evil cold hearted woman was successful on her conquest to take my happiness out back into the woods and shoot it dead, with all her furious anger and smight. So now...."eyes welling up with tears" I had to swap the Rx8 in for a 06 WRX. Something that fits our whole family, All wheel drive for the UT weather, and still as a little coolness factor ya know turbo and what not."sniffle sniffle" It does pull a bit harder than the 8 and still fun to drive. (now trying to further comfort myself) But the interior does not hug the driver like the 8 and now I got a buncha ***** and Needles to look at no longer the cool push button works and digital speedo dials that conveniently show the number of the miles per hour you are cursing for that lazy driver who does not want an estimate of how fast we are going because that stupid needle dial is between the dashes. (eyes welling up with tears again) So I now say Goodby to my love de ocho and I hope and pray none of you fall victem to the onslawt of that arguement in your own happiness with your 8's.

So now for the good part for my fellow UT 8 drivers. I now have for sale
Greddy SP2 Exhaust with Supercat (resonated)
Agency Power Under Drive Pulley (Silver)
AEM CAI (silver)
If you are looking for a nice performance upgrade for your 8 will sell all of this for 500 bux..
regular exhaust price is like 500 CAI is like 200 Supercat is 390 and Power Pulley is 140. All parts are in like new condition and have less than 10k miles on them.
I also have my Stock RX8 rims with lugs and locks and full tread on the tires
Front lip Shine Auto (Burnout V2 front lip) this is a nice lip made of PRF so it is very durable better than fiberglass and will not warp or sag like poly. It is painted Galaxy Grey there are no cracks just scratches on the bottom out of site. Some rock chips very Few and small.
For you guys who have hoods that may have some dents and dings I have my stock hood in perfect shape. That may need to be painted to match your car color unless you have a galaxy grey 8 like I once had...(ahh...good times good times)
If any of u guys are interested in my loss of the 8 and want to keep my car alive a little bit. IM me. I need money bad to stop the new WRX from being all stock.. EWWWWW!

Wreak- All is not lost! The whole family CAN fit in the 8.

You forgot about the trunk. Just pop-out the door between the back seats, and your wife will get plenty of air back there.

Tough break, man. I almost cried when I read your post.

Wreak, is a third car out of the question? I have a beat, rustbucket '91 Explorer as my daily driver. The insurance on that thing is minimal, it actually gets better mileage than my 8. Can't you find an old Saturn station wagon somewhere that would fit the bill?

Dude, stay on the Website. At worst, you may be able to pick up another 8 in a couple of years.

Yea Jethro, I will still be arround and want to meet with you guys after all I am a car guy..I wanted to get a little civic or something for like 1000-1500 because I know hondas like the back of my hand so if anything came up I can fix it.. But on wens. My wife got laid off because her boss passed away and the company went under so I cant spend the doe on another car.. and the gas on the 8 was killing me I drive from Roy to SLC everyday and spend almost 100 bux a week in gas... But I hope I can pay this car down very quickly and buy another 8 I might get a Red one or Black one I dont know... But I will be driving an 8 later.. I dont even care if its a used one.... But I will deff. be on a website as normal..

Also interested in tires, I need 2 of them badly. Also I am sorry for your loss wreakloose. Probably feels like loosing a kid, but on the bright side wrx's are very good cars. That would be my next choice, love that boxer engine with a good exhaust. Sounds so good.

Wreak, if we ever do a drive in our 8's, you can be my navigator (if Mrs. Tull stays home).

WreakLoosE, I'll be seeing you tomorrow afternoon. I have your addy and cell number in case I get lost...I DIDN'T get the nav system, LOL.

BTW, I was at Bountiful Mazda this afternoon. They have a nice white 8 with the 6-speed, BN '07, for only $23,700!!

Year-end is the ONLY time to buy a BN car. If I had waited 8 months I could have saved $8,000. Of course, I wouldn't have gotten the color I wanted, and the stereo isn't the Bose system, but still...

Street racing just isn't worth it, especially when we have a terrific facility like the Motor Sports Park right here in northern Utah. You can race for REAL, get lessons from PRO'S, race on a real track, not endanger the general public-

AND NOT LOSE YOUR LICENSE!

Your insurance is going to go up, too. Gonna hit you right in the wallet.
