New RX-8 owner

Hello folks -- been lurking here for a while, but officially joined the club today.

2009 6MT, Nav, 4600 miles. My 2002 Millenia S is in the background.

Name:  IMG_1294_900.jpg
Views: 48
Size:  81.1 KB

Planned mods: this year: tint (not too dark) and mazda/rx8 badge removal. Wheel spacers are possible. Next year: suspension & possibly wheels.

Looking forward to being a part of this community. Thanks for all the kind advice I received here prior to the purchase.

-Brian

hey that Milly in the background is an excellent car I had a 95 Milly, 2.5 non S. And it lasted me up until just recently, got 350,000 miles on the clock out of her. So take care of her well!!!!

and congrats to your purchase, i have yet to buy one as well here!!

Wow, that's an incredible number of miles. I'm not sure it's possible for the S to last that long, but I will certainly be trying. 72,000 on her now so she's a young pup. This is my third Millenia-- my first was a '95 non S as well. Fantastic car. The RX is my first non-Millenia in a decade :-)

Yeah I think I died a little bit inside when my Milly ate the curb finally. Loved that car to death. If I could get another one in mint condition I'd be all over it.
