Welcome to the club! Nice pics and i like the rear rotary light.

Thanks!

In case you dont know:
The rear rotary light is actually a rear fog light, which is required by law in germany...
Thats why the american RX-8´s dont have it from factory, but the german RX-8´s

Willkommen im Club . The rear fog light and head lamp washers are mandatory in mainland Europe fyi.
Those are good numbers for an engine with many kilometers.
