How much did you spend on your RX8 so far?
Just out of curiosity, how much did you guys spend on your RX8 in terms of modification? Not maintenance...
I just spent another $$$ on MS upgrade.
So far, I have spent $5k on top of RX8 purchased from day one brand new. See my signature for details.
I love the look of Mazdaspeed RX8 Version 2. However, it will take me another $5K to complete this project. ($3K for MS body kit, $2k for suspension). :D

mebbe $2500.
but the thing is the upgraded pieces were all replaced because the OE part needed to be replaced. (ie, muffler was bent when someone swiped me when i was parked.)
if i look at things just replaced for no reason. its more like $800. but thats jumping with my CAI in the mail (yay teamrx8). coming really soon are my race pipe and eibach pro kits.

man thats a good one!mazda speed exhaust,custom air intake,two sets of rims with tires ,lower air dam,x-men wing,rear grille inserts,amp and two tens,vac and temp.gauges,rear lower brake light,mud flaps then areo flare,side skirks,strakes ,clear corners,blue glow interior lights ,custom blue puddle lights,wow never listed my shi@@ before i guess around 5 grand should cover most of it but what the hell i'm out of warrenty and thinking bout supercharging or turbo!
oh and by the way it an 04 bought new four years ago.6speed.then again after all the recalls and wro work i should be in the 25,000 range due to some bad workmanship from the good ole boys and there manufacturing pros of clutches ,transmissions, head lights and tail lights bad batteries, converters,oil pans,storage contaners covers ,sun visors worthless plugs,starters ,and in all this madness of f-ed up parts i still love the hell outta my car and refuse to trade her in for anything!i feel like i have the Sixty thousand dollar car now and won't let her go!!
Monthly payment and gas. I'm hell-bent on finishing getting the 6 paid off by next spring. Only mod I have planned for the RX8 is getting rid of those god-awful stock speakers for something really nice.
