new to mazda

Hey all,

I just traded in my 2000 Celica GT-s and ended up with a 2004 RX-8 with touring package yesterday. This car is super clean and alot of fun to drive, since I am also new to rear wheel drive as well. I am not super thrilled about the gas mileage but like the new and potential owners thread suggests I will keep it to my self since this is a sports car. I am very excited to get down and dirty with this car, and do some of the DIY suggestions to make it just a little more reliable especially since summer is just around the corner!

but here is my car, unfortunately it is the only dealer pic they had left after I bought it, but I should be taking some pictures soon if it doesn't rain too hard tomorrow
