2004 Brilliant Black RX-8 (Over 20 pictures)

Bought her last Monday, awesome vehicle. GT Package. 6 speed. The 2003 E46 M3 featured in the pictures below belongs to my father. I will be installing the OEM spoiler next week and I will probably buy the MS Exhaust system. Enjoy.

Good color choice
I like how your interior matches your fathers m3.
Don't put the OEM spoiler!

Those are a set of wheels that I had on my '02 Eclipse GT. I traded that car in towards my RX-8. And that day I swapped the wheels with the stock ones, so they sat in my driveway for a little bit.

Looking great! The two cars match well.

If you really want a spoiler, find a local BB w/ spoiler and swap trunks. I have been wanting to swap for a spoilerless WWP trunk for a year ...I am sure you could find someone in a similar position and save a ton of money.

Congrats. Looks great. My only suggestion would be to lose the dealer emblem on the rear.

Nothing screams "This was somebody's trade in" like a dealer emblem, especially if it is a non-Mazda dealer.

I loved my Eclipse, and yes it was an awesome car, especially for my first car. I like everything the 8 has to offer, specifically the drive train and tranny. My Eclipse had a lot more torque than the 8 though. I also like the 8's interior a lot more.

I hate how dealerships actually put the name of the dealership on the car itself.
