Thumbs up New member, looking to buy an RX8 :)

I've decided on an RX8 :D mainly because I don't do much mileage, it's an unusual car (and not a mundane German car), it has 4 seats and an LSD. I thought about the 130i and CLK430 but they don't quite cut it.

Some of my car history:
First gen RX7 (so I'm not entirely new to rotary)
Mercedes CL55 AMG
Audi A4 3.2 quattro
BMW Z4

I've currently got a Skoda Fabia which I'll either sell or trade in.

Finally went and bought myself a 2008 Kuro. I drive mostly at weekends so will update.

As I've just bought the car, I will be doing some maintainance - engine and gearbox oil and filters, air filter, spark plugs, coils and ignition cables.

Once those are done I'd like to think about suspension, wheels, exhaust and brakes. This is primarily a road car but I'd like to do a couple of track days / autocross / hillclimbing.

I'm thinking coilovers, some lightweight wheels (most likely 18s), a lighter exhaust and a bit more stopping power.
