Shots of my recently purchased '04 VR RX-8

I finally got a chance to take pictures of it. Since I bought it in early February I've gotten sick twice (bronchitis, sinus infection) and it was backed into by my sister so I haven't had time to clean the damn thing let alone get any pictures of it. That changed this week. This also gave me a chance to try out my Canon G10. It's sad to think I bought it last October and I'm just NOW using it to snap pictures of a car. Anyways, here are the pictures. Enjoy!














(I <3 the color of my car.)


(I also <3 my gauge cluster.)

As you can see by the mileage the thing is just a baby. Only mods so far are a Borla cat-back and a sweet Mazdaspeed shift-****. I have a K&N intake sitting here in my room that I'm going to install on it as well. Most of my money/time so far has been spent on maintenance (both reactive and proactive).

The car will be paid off either by the end of this year or the first part of next and will, for the most part, be a weekend toy.

That is a really clean 2004, you can even see all the metallic flake is still in the paint. Take good care of it.

And btw yes VR is a great color. Go drink your Haterade somewhere else!

Just needs a little swirl remover action and it's good to go.

Congrats and welcome aboard!

Congrats, nice and clean. Enjoy it this summer

At least you're not fantasizing about this car like me when I was 13, and now 7 years have passed, and I have to pay for the college, at least I will get it for max 5 years, untill then, take the bus and go where it goes


Clear corners would be nice too
