I've had the 8 about 6 weeks now.

Beautiful day today so took it for a spin with wife in front and 3 year old daughter in car seat in back.

We've bought some land two hours drive north of Auckland for weekend getaways. A great drive - lots of twisties and passing lanes.

Took some pics of the 8 sitting by what will soon be a building site.

Here's another (if I can get the photo uploaded)

Those certainly don't look like California cows...

*using the voice of the Crocodile hunter* ....here we have the wild RX-8. It sitting quiet now...but we have to watch out or well be over the speed limit in no time.

Seriously though...nice picture. I love RX's in natural settings.

Pookina, congrat's on the new member to the family.
I can't help thinking someone played around with your photo in Photoshop, switching a Mazda B-Series for your car...

Bet the cows were impressed!

Here's another taken same day

Mr M

You have headlight cleaners in NZ? Wow, things have changed since I was last there! What's the white sticker at the bottom left of the windshield?

RX-GR8

Can you please post a few closeup photos of those cows. Do you own the cows aswell? Did you let any of the cows drive your RX8? Oh yeah, the RX8 looks very nice by the way. But I would appreciate it if there were some more photos of the cows. Do these cows give milk aswell?

Thanks for the comments. Yes we have headlight washers in NZ. Only one 6- speed manual version available AFAIK - leather, no sunroof, Bose 6CD player, aluminium pedals. Headlight washers.

the sticker on the front lest of the screen is the registration sticker. Has to be renewed every 6 or 12 months. Small sticker on the other side is Warrant of Fitness. Has to be renewed every 12 months.

The cows were fairly unco-operative. When they became aware that I was photographing them they made themselves scarce.

In New Zealand cows are not permitted to drive passenger motor vehicles.

Mr M

Shame about the size of that rego sticker, makes your beloved sports car look a little like it is in a car-auction or something. Can't NZ cops read, they need such a big sticker!
Maybe I'll return one day and we can compare Mazda stories...
