HELP!!!!!!!! I might have found my RX8

OK, I'm online right now

aol heatice77
yahoo heatice77

Can someone go online to chat with me

I think I found a RX8 in VA but they don't know how to tell what options it came with. I'm looking for at least a sports package RX8...how can I look up the VIN or tell if it has the sport package?

Get online if you can and help me out...I have a link to it...

HELP!!!

looks like a base base model from here (no foglights, didn't see the extra letterings on the button panel for DSC/TCS off).....

dude, think about this, do you really REALLY want the HID/fog/DSC/TCS of the sport pkg??

if you are looking for a 8 on the cheap a base model is just fine, let alone a used 8! you may be able to negotiate a great price on it!

Frankly, with the rain Orlando likely gets - do y'all get poured on, like other parts of Florida? DSC may be a nice thing.

I would keep looking - that's a lot of $$ for a used base model with 8k miles.

Yup, if it were in the high teens, I'd say go for it.

And then there's the used factor- rarely does an enthusiast who cares for their car properly trade it in so quickly. It has to be a helluva deal to make that gamble worth it.

I looked at that very car at Landmark Honda and it is a BASE car - NO Sport pkg. I drove it and actually kicked the tail out more than I would have liked in a situation that I totally did not expect - so I consider the DSC mandatory for safety.

Thanks...how lucky was that, I'm glad you told me that. Was the rest of it in good shape?

But, I will pass on it...and wait for my black sport package 6spd baby...
