Congratulations dude, we all know the feeling. Who says you can't buy sexual satisfaction, I wish I was only collecting my 8 this afternoon. :D
Make sure you check out the threads titled: "What I think of this car - plus newbie's guide to the rest of you b*stards" by BVD and "Ten things that all new RX-8 owners should know from day 1" by Taka. They are both good reads. :D
Someone help ! How the hell do you insert a link to a different thread? I don't mind taking the abuse as long as I can figure out how to LIVE IN THE NOW ! :o :o :o

Mind PMing me too. I think I know how you did it but I just wanted to make sure.
Alternatively, how about just answering here so others can pick up some computer tips.
Would also love to know how to get quotes from multiple people into the one post (Ezzy's a master at it!).
Sorry if this boring for the rest of you (and apologies to Simon for semi-hijacking his intro thread :o ).

rev it up
Congratulations and welcome.
You will find that there are so many resources and knowlegable people on this site. Enjoy reading and driving will never be the same again.

Hi Simon....great car isn't it...and a decent bunch here, too
And now (because if I don't Revolver will chide me) it is my pleasant duty to point out that we're having a National meeting in October (21-23) centred on Goulburn (NSW)...a great opportunity to learn more about your car, how to drive it ....and the (other) nutters here who appreciate it :D

Firstly,
Hi Simon, good to have you here. Great car, and great pics
Secondly,
Alternatively, how about just answering here so others can pick up some computer tips.
If you want to post a link you can just open the relevant thread and then copy and paste the address from the box marked address (usually up near the top of your browser). Like so:
https://www.rx8club.com/australia-new-zealand-forum-37/do-your-headlights-project-2-layers-light-67565/
OR
You can just right click on the thread without opening it, click on Properties and then copy and paste the address.
TO BE FLASH:
To hide the address, and put a description instead, use this format:
[Xurl=https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.php?t=67565] Click here to view headlight thread [/Xurl]
But, you MUST remove the two Xs (next to the "url"s) If I hadn't put them in it would come up like this:
Click here to view headlight thread
Cheers Chris.

[XQUOTE=EZZY] Your words [X/QUOTE] - without the two Xs, of course.
Now I can add something from Revolver, and perhaps even make a little 'accidental' error with his name....

Actually BVD stood for Bloody Volvo Driver
When I signed up here to ask some questions I was still driving my Volvo - and despite the jokes it was a great car. (What's the difference between a porcupine and a Volvo?? With a Volvo the pr*cks are all on the inside.) etc.
It only took a few days to make my mind up, so I soon joined the ranks of the fortunate, and bought an RX8. BMD now I suppose.
P.S.
Apologies to Simon for all this off-topic stuff on his thread - but that's rather what happens around here. It's just like a pub really - somebody tries to get a discussion going about nuclear physics, and before you know it the lads are all talking about footie or cricket, or fighting among themselves about who can drink the most, or whatever....
