Nothing can beat new car smell..... I just picked up my RX-8 (it took about a month because it has be manufactured at Mazda's plant in Hiroshima). It was like a 7 km on the odometer at the dealer (I took these pictures after I drove around the town). The nav is excellent. Ride is just right without getting harsh.

 

welcome home

 

rhd ftw!

 

change the wheels ASAP

 

those wheels in 19"... hmmm what do you think?

 

I bought mine with clear corners as well... is that from factory? i have no clue... and its wierd u drive backwards :\

 

nice rhd with nav and super base wheels? haha

 

glad to have another happy owner but

16 inch wheels
auto
u claim the ride to be nice.....


ugh....u must be at least 30 right?

18s and some coilovers man!

 

Congrats on your new car.

 

What does that have to do with a person being 30? I'm 35 and have 18s and my 8 is lowered. Don't be ageist!!!

 

Welcome to the site, now go drive some twisties!

 

congrats and welcome

 

haha wow awesome, i starred at the first picture for a few minutes wondering why the gauge set up was backward! but then i realized it was rhd =)

congrats and have fun with it!

 

My plan for the wheels is to use these stock 16-inchers for the snow tires (when I need to replace tires) and get the new 18" wheels for the rest of the seasons. I opted for the standard wheels because they are cheaper, give me more comfortable ride, and would be less prone to the theft (I have just moved in recently and am not sure of how safe this neighborhood is). I picked silver color for this car instead of going for blue or red because I do not want my car stand out in the parking lot (because of those bright colors).

 

Good catch, and no I don't drive an AT

Oh, and sorry for the thread crap OP, congrats on the new car.

 

I think that is the microphone for the nav as it can accept voice commands. Or, it could be for the security system.

 

you might want to take it back to the dealer, your steering wheel is on the wrong side
