Finally getting the 8, pick it up tonight
Well, we're finally picking up the RX8 tonight to make my dream all rotary garage come true. We found a Silver 05 6MT with MT Touring package for $24,4K after a rebate for financing through Mazda. Been holding out for a while hoping for a deal and I think this is it. I'll post some pictures tonight with my RX7 after we get it home.
Damn, I'm excited. We've already picked out the plate, since it will be my wife's car: ROTR GRL
:D

congrats!
Can't wait to see the pics.
Haha, you shouldn't have posted what your plate is going to be. Now someone in VA is going to steal your idea!

Nice man. So you just picked it up eh? How many miles you put on it already, 800? LOL Love what you've done with the garage. Not a piston in sight.

i'm not sure how many mile exactly, but the wife drove it quite a bit today
Hope to catch up with you next season at autox when I'll be instructing my wife too! She'll also become my new tire caddy since I can't get my track tires in the FD :o

It's times like this I am REALLY grateful she can't drive a M/T.
Congrats again on the car
