New 8 Owner, Not new to rotary..
What's going on guys, and gals? So I just bought me a 2005 8 today, Previous owner works for BMW as a service advisor and had a detailed list of maintenance on the car. The car does have 112000 miles, motor professionally rebuilt by a rotary specialist and not by Mazda in the last 10000 miles, BMW recently in the last 100 miles changed coolant and thermostat and oil change, with in last year and about 2000 miles had new clutch tires and brakes installed, plugs wires and coil replaced 3500 miles ago. It does have a cat back exhaust, unknown make, and a K&N Typhoon intake, everything else stock.

The X is silent
You won't have any trouble buying one here when someone parts out their car, but if you want something "OEM plus," the AEM intake is identical to the intake branded as a "Mazdaspeed" and the Racing Beat REVi intake is comparable to OEM.
Sounds like you've found a nice car. Congrats and welcome.

Thank You RXeligion, I look forward to being part of the newer rotary group, always loved my first gen 7 and loving the 8 just as much if not more.
