Finally got my RX-8!
 

After 10 months of (mostly) lurking, I finally picked up a 2004 GT 6 speed manual in Titanium Gray with 28K miles about a month ago. I bought it from another RX8Club member, Killerfish, who was the original owner and had obviously taken great care of it. I took these pics at an Outlet mall on the way back from picking up the car - while my wife shopped, I stayed outside and took pictures and read the owners manual.

I am having so much fun with this car. I try to "drive it like I stole it", every chance I get. It's now got 30K miles, and I'm going to start premixing to try to extend the engine life. That, and a clay bar session are in my near future.

Thanks to everybody who posts here - what a great resource this website is!

very nice, congrats

Looks like mine before I got my new wheels. I'm sure you'll enjoy it. Just be sure to read that owner's manual thoroughly :P

Looks just like mine too... just a little cleaner then mine at the moment. ;)

congrats! have fun!

Hey, that's a good lookin' car you got there. :wiggle:

Thanks to everybody who responded.

The adventure continues. Picked up a Meguiar Clay Bar kit yesterday, and ordered some Idemitsu premix today. Now to figure out whether to pour in the premix first, then add gas - or the other way around. I read most of the premix thread, and still feel like I need to flip a coin about that one.

Congratulations!

Congrats!!! Welcome to the wonderful world of owning a Rotary.
