Hey! New Rx8 owner!

Hi all, found out about this website and thought i better sign up!

I've owned a mazda rx8 for 10 months, ended up selling it to get the R3 that i recently brought a week ago! anyone else own an R3? Any information i need to know?

Thanks, hope you're all well!

You just try to take care of it like any other RX-8, really.

R3 is designed with a bit more performance in mind compared to the GT trim. It has different suspensions, Recaro seats, and 19" wheels, a body kit among other things; GT lacks those but has the sunroof option and heated leather seats instead, as it's more oriented towards comfort and features.

Does WeatherTech offer a custom FloorLiner for the RX-8? If not any pull to have one created?

No Weathertech does not offer a custom floor liner for RX8, but they will try to sell you one that you have to cut yourself to fit. I talked with them about this.
