My thanks to everyone who contributed to the wealth of information on this forum. It made my decision to buy an RX-8 much more informed than it would have been otherwise.

So, after months of research I'm the proud owner of a Velocity Red 6MT GT with Black/Chaparral interior, appearance & accent pkgs, spoiler, and 6 Disk CD. This car is so cool!

Thanks again for your help & enthusiasm - Hopefully, a picture of my ride will be attached.

 

Congrats, the red is awesome. I have the same except for red interior. Any pics with the door open to show the interior, I've never seen the chapperal.

 

Nice man....real nice
