Yay, on my driveway!!

Since I've seen this car about 4 years ago in a Businessweek, I have lusted over this car. She's finally here! And after about six months on this forum, I am quite proud to be an owner of this car. She's black. Sport Package with a OEM rear spoiler. Plans to add Mazdaspeed body kit will be achieved... about a year. Too bad my camera is missing, I would post pictures over wise. Let my enthusiasm for this car never cease.

Thank you to Koons Mazda for being understanding an patient with me and my father.

congrats on the RX-8! Everyone knows that black is the fastest...

remember to follow those break-in procedures, as tempting as that 9,000 rpm might be.

I'm thinking of naming her Minerva - "The goddess of wisdom, invention, the arts, and martial prowess. She came to be identified with the Greek Athena." as from dictionary.com

Silly people. Everyone knows that Shinka Black Cherry is the fastest, best handling, and its exhaust smells like lilacs. But straight black is pretty sweet too!
