New RX8 owner

Well. We got the call from the dealership today. Car came in. Just got home from picking it up. Just parked it in the garage and took a picture.

I also just got my Rx8 and I got an automatic Sport package in Ti Grey. (notice i didn't say tit!) On my first tank I got 245 and if the dealership didn't lie then they put 93 octane in it. I just filled it u for the first time and put 89 mid grade in it. Seems to be running fine.. we'll see how far it gets on this gas.
