hmmm, race wise it can be me but location wise, I doubt it's me. But I did see another silver 8 driven by a cute female last week. Gave me a wave while she passed by.

Not sure if your interested but I'm going down to Road America on April 12th for a track weekend. Check out the Midwest F-Body thread in the MW section. Fun times even for a spectator.

Are there any meets around Kenosha, Oak Creek, Mil-town? I saw one where a group from Ohio is meeting in Chicago, then making a drive to Kenosha this Saturday, but I can't make it. I have to work and fights later that night.

Hi guys, looking into getting an used rx8. I'm from Wisconsin too, and was reading up on the mechanical problems of this car. Would really like to hear what you all have had problems with and the reliability of this car. Thanks!

Congrats on the car M-Speed, where you at and what year is your car. I just got my 05 SS GT Stock with 15k miles too about 2 months ago! Been in this forum for a while now, getting know much about the car before I bought one.

Yeah, that's more like what you'd pay for a last year model closeout new car from the dealership.

Keep smokin' that crack bud! Otherwise, if that's what you paid for it, you were taken.

M-Speed, you got your car on the 31st of March and selling it on the 2nd of April???? The tax you paid itself is a loss. By the way, that is way way wayyyyyyy too much for a 04. What is with this 04 people? I got a PM when I was looking for a car from a 04 owner asking 20k because "he has taken good care of it and done all the recalls"... lol

Good luck on your resale!

I test drove a G35 (also rented one for a few days) - both automatic and manual - I tell ya, the 8 is much more fun. The G35 (manual) beats you up pretty bad for a nice car and doesn't shift smoothly. My other half is actually getting one (he's way tall to fit in the 8 but he still likes to fly around in it few days a week).
Taking my car out of hibernation this weekend - woo hoo.

Hey M-Speed,

Welcome aboard! Are you looking for standard service on your '8 while under warranty or more exotic upgrades independent of warranty approval? I know of someone that can do both. Give me a PM if interested.
