Greetings!
I just wanted to introduce myself and say hello. I just picked up a 2004 Lightning Yellow RX-8 this week and am enjoying it. I'm in Waltham, MA.
I'm coming from a lot more power and torque but far worse handling - I had a 2001.5 Audi S4 Avant with big turbos (stage 3) and lots of other mods. So, 400+hp and 500+ lb-ft torque. However, I'm enjoying the RX-8 a great deal :-)
I also instruct at track events with several clubs (ACNA, BMWCCA, COM, among others) so I'm looking forward to doing the occasional track day with the RX-8, though my usual track car is a track-prepped Mini.
There are a few things I need to figure out on my new RX-8, like exactly what kind of aftermarket exhaust is on there (it might be an Agency Power but I can't find any markings). The car is a blast, though! :-)

Thanks for the warm welcome!
I've got some photos of the mystery exhaust. Looks like titanium tips from the blueing (maybe). I haven't gotten it up on a lift yet but at least we can guess based on the tips
