It's funny how excited these newbies are about buying a new RX-8.
But hell I was that thrilled when I bought my first one.
Welcome to the forum mlewis412. But we must insist on PICTURES !!!

Welcome. I believe those who buy used RX8's will be more loyal than the previous owners.

Awesome, good to hear about your new purchase. I know I was so excited when I first bought mine. It was the best feeling in the world walking up to pick it up my car and seeing a piece of paper in the window that said "congradulations Ryan for purchasing this vehicle". I put 200kms on it that night and burned more than half a tank of gas.

Keep us updated on the carbon fibre stuff. You'll be surprised at how light the stock hood is already. And yes pics are a must!

Welcome to the club! Congrats on your car. Pics would be nice, and pics of your 8 with the cf on it would be even more cool (when you get them on).

-Cody

P.s. if you have any questions, Search. that'll keep you from being flamed and such. And if you say you're gonna do something, post pics so you won't be called "another Nalin."

Enjoy
