New RX8 owner
Hey folks,
I am new to RX8 ownership. Just picked up a 2004/05 Model RX8 the other week from Brighton Mazda. They seem like pretty good people there and i was really happy with service I got. Apparently they also have a rotary specialist mechanic on site in their service dept which was a big plus as well.
My new baby came in Titanium Grey with 60k on the clock. I've just upgraded from an ES Lancer so needless to say I have been blown away with the RX8. Boy, that thing goes!!!
I work as an illustrator,concept artist for a toy company here in Melbourne and decided to put my skills to work on "Ripley" as I have dubbed her (named after the Aliens character that also kicks serious *ss!)
Here's my rendition. Hope you like!

Revolver - Thanks for the welcome. This seems like a pretty awesome site. Great wealth of info here. Oh, and yeah i'd like to think that thats just tyre smoke and not an implosion from a 7500rpm clutch dump..heheh
Cromax - Thanks! Are there any rotary specialists in the Melbourne area that you can recommend?
thisllub - thanks! Ripley the cat , eh! Probably pretty apt. The RX8 purrs like a kitten too!
