My license to read minds expired 10 years ago. If I'd have known it was you I'd have had some kinda smart *** remark to make and would have been excited to meet you. You need to realize that old men need the direct approach. There were several members that I wanted to meet and did not or in my old age did not realize who I was meeting. I've got to admit that I was talking to so many that I could have spaced it. In fact there is one guy I was talking to about rear ends that I would like to talk to again and I had a CRS moment and can not remember his name.

U guys are funny!

Ya i really like the Shinka with its extra goodies... I wish it came with a factory turbo or something towards HP but the fact they only made 2149 of them will allow it to keep its value much better then than the average 8. I figure twenty years from now it will make a differences at the car shows.... and I plan to keep the car....

The Shinka I'm looking at was originally priced at $33,800
Now The window say $26,900
...but I plan to get them down lower....
I am shooting for $20,000-$22,000 What do u guys think?
It's an 06 shinka AT w/ 183 miles on it... never owned & the dealership has passed the point in time where mazda will give them a kickback for selling the car.
The dealership has already said they expect to take a loss on the vehicle but we have not worked out a final #....
I told them what I plan to pay for it and Im waiting to hear back from them.....
I live in NorthEast PA so no one is gonna buy an RX-8 going into snow season.

Hopefully, things work out in my favour...!

If you can get the car for 20-22 grand then you'd better buy it but if you come back and complain about the AT then the POX be on you. I also believe that the 8 will be a collector car or at the very least an enthusiasts car that will retain it's value.
