nice to see you are babying her from the start, make sure you are as attentive to oil changes, etc. Maintenance is very important in this car.

I will baby her,I'm actually a tech for mercedes-benz. 1000km before i got it, it had coolant,eng oil,trans oil,rear end,brake fluid and battery.
But dont think she's not going to blow off the rear tires every couple of months...

i have driven alot of cars and owned a crap load and the 8 is possibly one of the coolest i've driven. its up there with s2000 and a wrx sti in the fun dept!.
Good luck on the purchase! I have been getting lots of compliments on the interior, the black and brown is a nice combo.
