I Broke My RX-8 HELP!

Straight to the point, My RX-8 accelerated in Neutral, Does Not Respond to Reverse, and will not Move, Still Sounds Good! What is the Problem? Someone is telling me I Need a New Transmission, Others are telling me I need new Transmission Fluid? I need a Rotary Head to give me some insight.

it is a 2005 Mazda Rx-8 Shinka Ive only had it about 2 months, it was used with 120k miles on it, its an automatic transmission, to be honest, I think that I may have broken something driving it in automatic instead of manual

right so the first thing you'll want to do is read this about 12 times NO really read this!

then you'll want to search( either here or on google) for the reverse safety( Inhibitor) switch
