New 8 owner
3 Attachment(s)
I've been trolling the boards for a while now, looking around and getting everything in order to be able to make this purchase. I finally picked one up this weekend.
04 Black 6spd Sport with the appearance package and spoiler. Took delivery with 10,492 miles. As she sits in the parking lot this morning shes at 10,812. Paid 13,500 out the door (tax, title, doc, etc...) + my tiburon. Tossed some cash on top and I'm paying 225/month. Clean carfax and its got just over 2 years left on the warranty - was put in service summer of 05. Its a hell of a car, I'm deff happy with it. |
welcome aboard.
|
Nice find - I wish my payment was that low!
|
Congrats on the 8. Sounds like you got a good deal!
|

Welcome and thanks for the pics. Very low miles for an 04. Make sure all the recalls and TSBs done.

congrats!

it hasnt had the latest "emmisions" recall done yet. Drives and runs nicely so far. god ~19.8MPG on my first tank. Pretty happy with that. I got 6,000 for the tiburon. it was an 03 4cyl 5spd manual with 88,000 miles in good but not great shape. Probably wasn't worth 6,000 especially from a dealer on trade. I don't think I stole the car but I don't think I overpayed by any means either. I am happy with what I got the car for. Hopefully I'll get it out on the track in the next few weeks. I work about 90 minutes from Gingerman Raceway(www.gingermanraceway.com). |
Congrats! Sure looks nice :)

As was mentioned before ,,"I wish my payment was that low." |

I am in the same boat as you except with higher payments.
Just walked out of the dealership with an 06 RX-8 GT AT with under 10K miles on it. We will see if the shine wears off in the next few months. |
uh-oh.

Ignore my PM, I just found your post. Nice looking 8. May 27 Blackhawk Farms with midwest council :ylsuper:
|
That May 5 date sounds familiar for some reason. Either way Im sure me and/or mike and/or kristen will be there so i'll make sure you get it then.
So i take it you liked Blackhawk? How were those new pads? |

Yea that is pretty much what it looked like. More of a technical track like Gingerman that me and Mike do regularly. Its fun not having every asshole with 250whp blowing by you once you get to the straight just to park in front of you on the corners isn't it?
