Welcome,
I am also in the Vegas Valley (Henderson). I don't check the site as often as I should, but hopefully I can make the next local meeting.

hey everybody in Vegas, I have owned my 8 for about two years but I just moved to Vegas. I would appreciate a meeting with anyone in the area so I can increase my knowledge about what is available (body shops, rotorary performance shops, dealerships, etc.) in the Las Vegas area.

Hey whats up guys. I just got an 2004 Nordic Green RX8 recently, Still has the dealer tags on it.

She replaced the red cobalt I was driving. A few burnouts, and almost lost the rear end a few times from getting used to the car.

Nice to meet other rotary freaks. ;~) I have to say though that since I got this car, My crazy factor has increased, and I now have an attitude of irritation on those who impede my forward progress. My bf says I need to join a speed freaks annoymous help group. LOL

be a long time before I get to mods, still trying to settle off some tickets I owe. And many other list of things to do, before mods.

And does this car (mine being 6 speed manual) Normally eat up a lot of gas. I seem to be going through tanks a whole lot quicker than the celica, but that was expected. Just not as much as I thought.

About how many miles to the gallon is everyone getting on the mazda 6 speed ??

I see, well hopefully you will enjoy your new RX8, it sucks on gas compred to other imports, but it's very fun to drive. I don't know where GILBERT, is getting 20 miles on a gallon, I barely get around 10, maybe 13 if I slow down a little bit. But, you should of been informed on this before you purchased your RX8.

That sounds about right, now i'm trying to keep my rpms down and not have a heavy foot that I always have. But other than gas mileage, this car is awesome. And as cold as its been, its funny that just yesterday... I realized I had heat seats, and used it for the first time.

?? how do you reset your trip miles ??

LOL We all have the need for speed.. Sometimes it's just best to cruise, especially when you have heads turning and looking at your car as they pass you by. I don't know how to reset the trip mileage, I've never done it. I have a 04' RX8 with barely 20,000 miles on it.. I'm sure someone on this forum can inform you on that, might want to check "The Tech Garage".
