WA New to the Mazda world!

Alright hi everyone!
My name is Jaclyn, and I'm buying my first car... an rx8.
I don't know very much about rotary's I grew up around cars, but not these haha... I do however understand how cars work (I helped my ex build an evo 8 head swap on a 2.4l block) and the get general idea of how a rotary works.
I'd love to know more about what I'm getting into, I'm very familiar with the car scene. I used to go to meets all the time with my ex.
I'm hoping there's a few rx8s in the Seattle area who know alot about them and maybe we could have a meet? I'd like to see some other cars and get a little educated. Cars are something I really enjoy and this is a big branch out for me.
I hope I didn't post this in the wrong spot, and I know how people are please don't be rude to me.. I honestly just want to learn more about this car.
-thanks, jaclyn

Welcome.

The threads in my signature may be where you want to start. I would do new owners first and saves the mods until you have one to modify. New member forum is where you want to look, the stickies are there, as well as a ton of new type questions.

Again, welcome.

Welcome Jaclyn! Find RIWWP and read all the threads in his signature about 5 - 10 times each! They are a wealth of knowledge!
