Brand new RX8 issue

Hey everyone, new to the site and just bought a new RX8 last week. It has 300 miles on it and already having an issue with the motor at 6k rpm, it falls off and sputters in the power band and also sounds like ball bearings in a spray paint can. Anyone had any experience like this? I'm taking it in Friday because this is not cool and the warranty will cover whatever it is but any ideas. Thanks!

my friend, try a search. not really "new", nor is every problem an "issue", 'cause every car is different, there can be some one-offs.

thanks.
