First daytime shots.

Nothing special (an RX-8), but very special to me. :D

i dunno, i just drove an e46 m3 today and was VERY impressed. i had a ton of fun.

definitely doesn't feel as light as the 8 though. then again, what does? a cooper?

A 2nd Happy Birthday to my RX-8, clocked in at 48959 miles yesterday! Still running well! (drove 25.6K miles in the last year)

A couple of mods since I bought it

I got a deal on a 2nd-hand set of lip, sides and rear aero flares. They all cost a bit over ~$840 new, subtract ~$225 if you don't want the rear.
