New owner intorductions
 

Did a search and couldn't find one. I just purchased a 2011 mt rx8, Im already in love seriously best all around vehicle I've ever had the pleasure of owning. I did some research on here before I pulled the trigger on the deal. Went for brand new for fear of one that was abused and had issues. Being a lifelong gearhead im definitely up for the different form of upkeep. That's the important part....its not more maintenance its just being a rotary engine requires different forms than what most are used to. Im still discovering more and more amazing pieces of engineering prowess in this thing. Being a machinist by trade I appreciate all the little details that make the total package. I can't wait until im through the breakin period so I can really drive it. Having owned several performance cars prior two camaros a mustang and a srt neon (still own the 91 camaro) the whole togetherness of the rx8 is amazing. I've still got tons of reading to do on here (lots of great info) and hope that by the time my extended warranty is out there will be a tuning solution for it. But for now im learning the stock capabilities of this car, it handles like nothing I've ever owned its definitely a whole different world. Any die hard musclecar guys (as i was) reading this possibly thinking of a purchase but reserved about the tq ratings fear not this car still provides tons of fun (nonstop grin on my face for the 200mi drive home had to travel rx8s are rare around here) As a matter of fact I find I have a bit to learn about a car that is as glued to the road as this is the cars capabilities for handling exceed my ability to pilot it. Seriously can't say enough (sorry if im rambling) will post pics later and I can't wait to get to know more about this amazing machine and the community that follows it.

Welcome to the Club and owning one of the best cars ever! I recently bought my 8 2 weeks ago now and the rx8 has ALWAYS been my dream car since i first saw it in a magazine clipping and now 8 years later i finally have my baby such an amazing car!!!

Pics speak more than words... :)

Welcome to the club.

I am thinking of purchasing a 2011 R3 (used 1871 miles)... The dealer isn't budging on the price...

Welcome to the club. With a series 2 the maintenance is far less than early model years. Keep an eye on oil and that's about it.

Leviallen - what's the asking price? An 11 R3 with low miles I'm guessing around 24-25k.

Been busy over the weekend, heres some pics I'm in the second one alongside the vehicle I traded in for it. Had to drive 150mi away from home to get one :eek:.

Paid just over 26k for it. still only has 270 miles on it.....that wont last long :D:

I can add more purchase info when i get home might scan the window sticker and show paperwork of final purchase price (personal info edited out of course) let me know if you guys want all the poop sheets for it. Although I'm sure most of you know more about these cars and pricing than I do. Hell I may have been ripped off but i doubt it was by much I dont even care if I was cant put price on love.

Welcome to the club. Enjoy it!

Great color choice! She's a beauty.

They want 27800 plus 500 document fee

Nice to see another S2 owner. Welcome to the addiction.

Just bought a White 2011 R3 used with just under 18k 2 weeks ago. Love this car, paid $27k, (Sat in the showroom under a week, sticker price was $29k.)

But I'm in Canada :icon_bs:

Tl;dr

You missed out, he was talking about doing a 200 mile smokey burnout from the dealer parking lot all the way back home because RX-8's are rare at the area he lives in.

There was a video link, and everything.

BC.

I just bought a 04 with 32500 miles. went to mazda and and got a vehicle history report. and at 32250 miles it had a new motor, reflash and basically all the other recall and o4 stuff that needed to be done to it. This is my first 8 and Ive owned a couple of 7's. I really really love my 8. Check out my profile to see a pic.

Nice 8! I just bought mine about 2 weeks ago too. Loving the car for sure. Your going to have a lot fun with it btw

Congrats... that's a great looking car.
