So this is my RX-8

So first and foremost, thanks to all the guys in my last thread that helped me know what to look for before buying my RX8 last week.

Wanted to update with a few pics, the car went to the shop last night and dropped off for all its services and a full check up. Bought it with no-disclosures so want to make everything is good to go.

I've already got a couple mods on my to do list... but here it is as it sits now.

On a side note, floor mats are in the "things to purchase" cart right now.

Niceee.. you got the Nav :-)

IF you are doing the tranny and diff fluids flushed then get them refilled with Redline stuff that makes it so much smoother.

Also, to be on the safe side, get the coolant flushed and have the hoses inspected to ensure they are all in good order.

All the best, and enjoy that baby :-)

Big sigh of relief, just got off the phone with Mazda.. had the full inspection and all fluids were good (Already had new coolant) Just did the oil change and topped everything else off. The only issues were missing a license plate light, and needed and alignment... both cheap easy fixes... everything else checkout.

I'm picking up tonight, but have to bring back in on Friday for an airbag recall? Not sure whats up with that, but they said they would knock it out on Friday in 90 minutes and its no charge.

Very happy.... modding will start shortly

Update: Any links on adding the redline myself? Its already wrapped up at the dealer
