Just bought my 1st 8

Hi all! This is my 1st post, as I have just bought my 1st 8. I am a noob here, just joined the club. Having read through a lot of the threads on here, the community seems to be pretty cool and tight knit. This is my 1st rotary powered vehicle, and I'm loving it! It's a '04 MT ti w/ 23,000 on it. No dents or dings, very well kept. Got a smoking deal on it. Thinking about going FI very soon... Here's a pic

Welcome to the addiction....looks clean...

I however recommned u learn to drive and appreciate the car NA for a bit before u jump right into FI...Not trying to discourage you but just say learn how it drive at 9krpms and handles then add some power behind it!!!

Again congrats and welcome!

Hey and welcome as well.

Make sure your read up a lot on this site. Most all questions have been discussed.

A good starting place is: the RX-8 F.A.Q: https://www.rx8club.com/rx-8-faq-9/

And, then (of course) Zoom's Winter Thread: https://www.rx8club.com/series-i-tech-garage-22/fall-here-winter-coming-things-remember-about-your-rx-8-a-129198/


You've (obviously) chosen a great car! Enjoy it!

Thanks to all for the warm welcome! I've done quite a bit of reading in the FAQ and other ones noob's need to know (thanks Silver). I think I will hold off on FI for awhile, maybe just go with exhaust/intake and some appearance stuff for now. I like the strakes, so I gotta get some. Maybe black-out the emblems too. Any feelings any CF hoods? I've read some threads on them, but I dunno... These cars are freakin' awesome!
