New Member/New Car
 
Just picked up my 04 RX-8. 18K miles, silver, GT package (no nav, though), stock. Gave my wife my G35 sedan. My other previous car was a very modded 95 M3. The RX-8 is everything my M3 was, hopefully w/o the constant need for repairs/maintenance. I'm not posting picks because the car looks like any other silver RX-8.

Congrats! Are you planning on doing any mods to the RX-8? Have any pics of your M3? Welcome to the club and enjoy your stay. :)

welcome! seems like yesterday i was picking up my ssrx-8 what a great day that was

I'm not going to mod this car - I learned my lesson the hard way. I don't think I have pics of my M3 anymore, but it was a good-looking car (projectors/clears/lowered/wheels/etc). My wife made me get rid of the car after the head blew (this was right after the radiator/cooling system needed replacement). Lost lots of cash on that thing.

In case your mind ever starts thinking about "...hummmm what to do to my new car?" put these under your pillow......:lol:

....beefier swaybars/bushings help body roll alot...stickier tires feel great then... RP short shifter improves the snick snick quite a bit, believe it or not... and exhausts are a simple job for a sporty sound. Then repeat after me "And it really dosen't cost hardly anything dear!"

No second thought...never mind...forget I told you any of that!

Now go enjoy your car ... weclome to the addiction ndrx8 :)

I'm a new member too, rather than start a new thread I'll just jump in here. I got a brand new silver '05. Sport package. See you around the forum!

New member, new car here too.

I got it last week. It's an 04 GT no nav. Titanium grey. It has 37K miles on it. I love it. It's unlike any car I've ever driven.

Congrats all! Welcome. Lots of good info in this forum. I've learned a LOT since I joined. Have fun! :)

Congrats guys on your choice of new car. I'm a new owner too and I must say this car is everything i have been reading and more! It truly puts a smile to your face when you drive it :)

Okay, I'm already looking at a short shift kit. I'll probably do that soon. I just don't see doing any engine mods any time soon.
