I can now only rev to 8000. Look!

Hey fellas/ladies,

Made a trip yesterday and got a good deal on this ap2.

I didn't really get fed up with the 8, but from my pov, it was 'best' to make this move on trading her in.






















[/QUOTE]

the character in the photos is not me, i'm taking the photos.

Anywho.

They offered me 13k for my '04 6MT with 32,6xx on the od. The car had a dent, plenty of paint chips, as well as chips on the wheels (used spray paint). I thought it was a fair deal when trading for this '04 AP2 s2k with 32,1xx on the od. Zero problems, clean carfax, bone stock, and it's yellow!

I find this a plus on my part. Yellow kinda became 'my colour' from my friends' pov's that I race with.

First impressions vs RX-8?

Power feels great, and even better once it hits 6k. Hello there, vtec. Handling seems great. Has a lot to do with being like..100lbs lighter imo, and idk about this staggered setup. MPG, of course, is great.

A Stock, here I come.

Anyways. It was a nice stay, here at rx8club.com. I absolutely enjoyed it and learned a whole lot. Not only about the car, but about driving as well. I do have a few parts left here that some of you may be interested.

idk if mods will get mad for posting what I have for sale since this isn't the right forum I guess.

Mods, can I post what I have, and have people pm me? Or start a Testing waters thread?

at least they posted it as an unknown engine type. I typically see them listed as 4 bangers on most listings
