My Modded 8 for your Stock 8+Cash?
Don't feel like spending a lot of time and money modding your RX8?
Give me yours and some cash and you'll have a fully modded one. Presto.
I really would like to build up a track-ready RX8 now that I'm getting out of college. New project.
My RX8 is a 05 SS. 32500 mi on it. Leather, Bose etc etc
MODS:
Clear Corners
Black Fender Strakes
Mazdaspeed Catback
K&N Typhoon Intake
Smoked Tail Lights
Tein STech Lowering Springs
Mazda Front Air Dam
Mazda Splash Guards
Painted OEM Rims
Voodoo Shift **** Magnum Black
Evo-R Painted Eyelids
Axial Flow Engineering Short Shifter
Agency Power Crank Pulley
Black Light LED Interior Set
We'll talk about how much money is coming from you depending on your cars condition.
Located right outside of Chicago. 60546.

haha i wish i could. i don't have extra cash right now though. i'd part out and start from scratch but that's just a lot of pointless work.
getting a bone stock 8 and some cash to get me going (coilovers, wheels/tires, turbo?) would be a lot easier than trying to save up and work on my current 8.
but yes, i do wish i could build this one up. have had her for 3 years.

I'll keep you in mind.
Let's see if someone's interested in the whole car before I commit to parting back to stock.
Guess I should just say--If anyone is interested in buying the car straight up, 14250 is the price.
Thanks

I think your expectations may be a bit high.

oh definitely can't get all those right away. definitely wheels, tires and another AFE Ss. I was thinking of maybe piecing the turbo kit together over a year or so and having it finished by the time im out of college. or just saving up and waiting until someone sells theirs on here.
it's a weird deal, yes, but it's worth a shot. if no one bites, i won't cry. driving my rx8 for a few more years? real hard life

and to be honest, i got the tattoo bug last year and went a little nuts. if i didn't get them, i'd definitely be FI right now.
funny how spring can make you regret not saving all your money for the car.

So you're trying to trade your 05 rx8 for another, with cash on top?
Unfortunately, minor mods like yours don't really add any value to the car as a whole.
If it would make it worth considerably more you could just as easily part out and have a fair sum of cash.
The rx8 is track ready in nearly stock form, yours would be a blast to drive as is. Take it to the track and go from there...
