Just got another 8!


Well in 2007-08ish i was looking at cars thinking about getting one until my eyes saw the sexiest car i had ever seen!



It was like love at first sight! I had to have it so i went to the dealer and got myself a 07 Galaxy Grey RX8!


About a year and a half later (TS1 carbon fiber hood, carbon fiber trunk, work emotion rims, pullies, rb header,rp shifter and a ton of other mods some douchebag ran a stop sign and hit and totaled my precious!!!! Thread: https://www.rx8club.com/ne-rx-8-forum-29/juansitos-ride-totalled-186068/



About 2 years later i just purchased a 2007 RX8 with 38k miles in the same color for $13500! Its got enke rims/carbon fiber hood and exotic-speed exhaust.

I'm so happy to be back in the family -- with the open arms its like i never left =D

As for list of mods -- Got to take this in to the dealer and let them scan over it before i install any mods -- I want them to make sure my plugs wires and everything are good with the engine before i do anything yet.

Then its midpipe (thinkin BHR), RB Header & intake, Pullies and TINTED tails

Think i might do turbo next year but i got to save first -- I paid cash so its gonna take some time to get my money up again.

Nope, But if you couldn't tell then that's awesome
NY roads are a killer so i wouldn't lower it anyway but it depends though.
