I just bought a RX-8

Hi I bought a 06 RX8 black shinka edition a week ago. and i love it. i got a great deal from the dealer because it was an 06, so i saved a lot of money.
I was going to buy s2k or g35, however when I first saw and test drove rx8 I just couldn't resist to buy RX8 even though rx8 was a whole different car from what I've been thinking to buy.
I don't have much knowledge of Rotary engine or RX-8 but I'm learning.

Have a great day guys!




I will take better pics and post it

I agree. Very nice car, i Love the interior. I think that interior goes really great with black.

But yeah, welcome to the club, and consider the Search button your first friend made, for it will answer just about ANY question you have that deals with the 8/Rotary engine.

Enjoy, and let the addiction/modding beging.

Mind if I ask what kind of deal you got? I'm working with a dealer on an 06 Shinka, and they don't want to budge on invoice+$500-rebates.

Nice Shinka! I really love the Sand leather.
And yeah, spoiler-less is a great, clean look!

What is the first mod you're gonna do?

Thank you guys.
I love driving my car
I paid $28,500 out the door.
It was $33,160 and they cut down $7,000 from the price.
so it was 26,160 and I cut down $400 more haha.
I thought that was really good deal
How much the dealer asked you to pay?
