Hello RX8 Clubbers!

I'm the new guy here.
Also, in roughly 1 year from now, I'll be purchasing a brand-spanking new RX-8! I'm so excited but I need a few specific questions answered, at this point.

Somewhat confused on a mandated break-in period? Would modding the engine before this period be a bad thing and possibly avoid a warranty? Second part to question, what can everyone recommend to me for an on-line dealer of aftermarket parts with a better than 'good' rating?

Also, how much will I love driving this car? I'm a handling enthusiast. I love the solid-feel of driving with a sense of total control. A bit of added horsepower will be even more appreciable.

Please tell me you're not serious about that screen name. That pegs you as either a ****** or a troll.

Go test drive it to see if you like it.

And yes, modifying the car voids the warranty. Any other questions?

first things first. the break-in doesn't take very long at all. wait until it is broken in to start modding! i know its hard to resist the urge but you must!!

and the handling on the 8, is awesome...you WILL NOT be dissapointed!
