My first car 7 years later

7 years ago when I was looking for my first car I saw a white RX8 on the road and fell in love with it. I went right home and started to search to see if any were being sold close to me. By chance a 2005 white RX8 was being sold at the Mazda dealership right down the road from me. At this time I had no clue what a rotary was but then the salesman explained the car to me I knew that it was the one.

Here is the car first day I bought it.


Over 7 years later I'm still in love with this car. One blown motor, a few drifting mistakes that put me in the woods but I always wanted to keep this car. It's not my daily car anymore so I've put a ton of work into making it my dream build. Here is the progress so far!

I think a black RX8 is the only decently dark vehicle I'd buy. Darker colours normally drown out body lines and detail but the RX8 seems to have a mystique about it with its contours and play well with darker colors. Or maybe it's the bulbous fenders that get hidden LOL
