New RX-8 Owner

recently purchased a 04 Rx-8 r-title w/74k miles. 6sp MT (forgot that part)
the bad:
r-title
1 key
74k miles
CEL on

the good:
good compression
gas cap replacement turned off the CEL


Wankel is amazing, i also own a sport bike and this thing reminds me of it

Welcome, I come from a sports bike background and I agree, it's the closest thing to a bike there is. FUN!

the rev range is spectacular, at first i thought this car would do like 200 with 6 gears. I just love how you can have 6 gears- yet not shift every 2 seconds...and the rotary engine really feels comfortable over 6k rpms

Never had a tire pressure indicator light blink before, just a steady light when one or more tires are low in air...
