Well-done!
Were I in your place, I'd probably have waited for an '09, because of the mechanical improvements, but the 40th anniversary plate will retain some value if you keep it clean- and keep it STOCK.
Nice ride though, enjoy!

Two more oil injectors, better oil cooling and pump, new final drive & ratio for quicker starts in 1st gear (MT only), changed rear suspension geometry. Many here think it's a good idea to premix as extra protection for the center apex seals since some have seen early wear there and the two new injectors are pointed at the center of the apex seals like with older rotary engines. If you premix, keep your oil topped off with high quality stuff, I wouldn't worry about the changes much. My goal is to keep this engine in good shape until someone figures out how to swap a 16x. Or maybe we'll all be driving electric cars in a couple of years.

Check the West Region Forum. We post the time,location, and date of the meets weeks in advance so people have plenty of time to clear their schedules so they can show up for these meets. They are fun and we usually get a pretty good turnout of members showing up.

I think you need to start using periods in your sentences. As for your 8, looks great. Shocked you were able to get 2 12's in that trunk.....it is tiny. With the spare tire in there, it's difficult to even fit a golf bag.
