Hey Everyone,

After a year of being active on this forum, my RX-8 finally arrived.
I ordered it on May 9th and took delivery September 17th. (4 very painfully long months)


Since I've now had it for a week, I've had time to make a few small mods:

-Clear Corners
-Stainless Steel Fender Strakes
-Front Splash Guards
- MS Wing


Thank you to all of you for this great forum, you've been a tremendous help.

Congratulations Jedi!! Black is by far the sexiest color for the 8.

Congrats on finally getting your ride Jedi. You've been here so long, and now that you have your ride, you can take care of her with expertise.

StewC625 09-25-2005 05:18 PM

Very nice! Wish they did a yellow interior on the yellow leather like that red/black interior ...

Congrats.

StealthFox 09-25-2005 11:10 PM

cool looking setup there with the factory aero kit and the MS wing with the front splash guards. black with red/black is one of my favorite rx8 combo's, nice choice.

termigni 09-26-2005 09:12 AM

NICE!!! congrats! black does look nice on the rx8.

may i ask why it took 4 months for delivery? I'm sure you could've picked up one and drove that baby home back in May.

Tigster 09-26-2005 09:18 AM

Whats the deal with your floor mats? It looks like the say rx8 all over them? Mine just say it in a white embroidery. Is that different for 05

KYLiquid 09-26-2005 10:00 AM

congrats, happy motoring

I think that these are special "premium" mats you can get.. check the accessory catalog.

Finding a black with black / red interior and Navi was nearly impossible. My dealer did an inventory search (back in May) and there were only 3 in the state. all of which already had a considerable amount of miles.

A few other Cali members with similar setups were forced to order as well.

No regrets at all, completely worth the wait!
(PLUS, its pretty cool seeing your name on the window sticker as it rolls off the truck) :p

Astral is correct.


I got a pretty good deal on them and I liked how the red border matched my interior.

Congrats on your new car!!!! ;)

I hope you enjoy it... Just make sure you break her in nice and easy before you make her beep.

StealthFox 09-26-2005 10:31 PM

they are the premium carpeted mats, there is also a weatherproof mat available as well.

I bought mine in may of 05 and had to wait for about three weeks to find a black with black/chapparal with nav, 6sp and the GT package...got appearance and 6disc for HUGE discount because it was the only one that they could find.....black is hard to find in CA without the all black interior...
don't know how you made it through I was DYING after only three weeks.

RX-GR8 09-27-2005 11:49 AM
