Just got my 07 RX-8



Black on black grand touring, nav, spare tire, sirius.

Traded in an '02 BMW 330i.

I feel like I traded a butterknife for a scalpel.

Post PICS! Congrats on your new obsession. Something about this car, I've had it nearly 3 years and I still turn around to look at her as I walk away

Welcome and congrats on the purchase! I was a past BMW owner as well, and like you really love the RX8's precise handling and overall feel. Makes me want to go for a ride!

Thanks for the warm welcome, everyone.

I'll post pics of my crossfire this weekend once I've washed and waxed... it's already been rained upon, and is not in photo shape.

No mods though... just looks like every other black/black RX-8 with no spoiler or body kit.

I was thinking some blinking neon fender strakes might be classy.

HA HA .!!!

I just picked Up my '05 Rx-8 on saturday ( bit older than yours - but new to me!)
So I am also siked!!! Funny thing is that One of the guys at work that has a hot- rodded BMW 330 I w/ dinan parts on it (( spends most of it's life in the shop)) recently blew up his engine (cracked block) ... about 2 weeks after getting the Rear rebuilt (( and yes it doesnt even have 100k on it)) He's looking at a boat load just to get it back..... If only he had seen the light of Dr. Felix.

Happy rotoring!!

I like that analogy. I came from a Hyundai Elantra; like trading in a spork for a... pair of chopsticks? No, that can't be right.
