I think I found my new car.
I went to look at an rx8 today. I found it online and it looked pretty good in the pics. When i got to the dealer and got to look it over, it was nearly immaculate. Its a gray 2005 with 39k miles. Runs awesome, handles great and nearly flawless. While I was checking the car out, I found a shop manual in the trunk, which is a big plus in my book.
I worked a deal with the dealer and should the financing go through, come Monday I'll be a proud new owner of an rx8. I'm pretty excited about it. I cant wait until Monday.

I just got home with the car, after a long afternoon at the dealer. This car is so much fun! Its not the fastest car, but it feels really quick. I need to work on my shifting, I'm nowhere near as smooth as I am on my bike. I'm confident I'll get better in time though. I cant wait to drive to work tomorrow!

I dont have any of my own pics yet, but here is a few from the dealer. Its nearly stock titanium gray rx8. I'm sure you guys have seen a lot of them, but they are pretty rare where I live. (SE MI)
I would have loved to get one with the GT package, but the one GT I found wasnt in very good shape.

i went to make sure you werent over paying.
you could buy a good condition grand touring, with lower miles, private party at that price. but for a dealership, that is a decent price.
congrats on the car.
