Hey, welcome and here's to many happy miles with the RX-8! Sport package is a great choice. If you see a Winning Blue with a Racing Beat exhaust out on Rt 9 on Tuesday nights, that's probably me.

I used to get my 2003 Mazda Protege serviced at Sentry West Mazda a few times.

Welcome SpeedB. My boss hails from Schrewsbury and terms it "the center of the universe." Not sure of the pedigree of that moniker, but....
Enjoy your ride!

Ha.. did you have your A4 last year? I remember a sales guy at Sentry West that I talked to a couple times and I think one time I caught him on the way out and he was driving an early '00s A4, might've been you. I'm due for a check-up soon, I'm in Westborough right now so I might stop by and show you the car.

I have a question for ya... How hard would it be for a 19 year old with no established credit to get financing for an RX8, say at about 32k MSRP, paying like 450-500 a month?

there were two people there that owned audi's but mine was the phat one with 18" rims and it was silver with real dark tints so yeah it was probably me, whats up.

as far as mazdaspeed parts i can get hem at dealer cost but even at dealer cost it would be more expensive than if you found them on ebay or after market

pavones answer

pavone to be between 450- and 500 amonth you will need to def find a cosigner that has good credit like a parent, also you will need to find an 06 cause it has $2500 in rebates right now, unless you put a couple grand down. You will never be able to get this loan by yourself cause no bank will do it not even mazda(ford) credit
