Unbelievable neurotic jello.

 

Congratz! Any mods in mind?

 

Hi All,

I had asked about the break in period after several other owners mentioned "taking it easy for the first 1000 miles"... I wanted more information and I got some great advise including the Japanese Rotary engine manufactures break in schedule (which I am following like a fanatic- if I say only 75 miles until 7000 RPM one more time my wife might erupt and floor it for me). I am sorry if new owners questions seem redundant to some but I am very VERY happy with all the information I have gotten about my new ride. As for the owners manual the break in information seemed to be a bit basic so I asked all the experts here and I am happy I did!

Sorry again if my questions are bothering, no need to read and reply but your "flame" did give me a good laugh;-)

currently at 6000 RPM for the next 145 miles...at 5300 the other day I hit 102 MPH and the car was pulling up a long hill at the time... ZOOM ZOOM indeed friends!!!

 

Welcome. Yodi. almost there on the break in i see. Enjoy the car and the forum.

 

congrats on purchase! welcome to the addiction!


I want a r3, but I do love my 05

 

The car seems perfect to me right out of the box...

I will be adding heat shielding to the center console ( can't be frying my ipod nor my colas now can I?).

I did have zaino applied and it came out fantastic...

Cheers,
Yogi

 

Welcome, and congratz on your new acquisition.

Stickies are generally usefully information pertaining to each forum and located at the top of the forum. (see pic of the DIY Forum)

 

Are there any great deals out there?

 

I paid hundreds less than Ture Car's listed dealer's cost. I contacted three dealers and never budged on my price point. On June 30 I was contacted by two of the three dealers both wanting to sell me a car that day. They both new I was negotiating with other dealers and The third dealer told me he had gotten sever calls from dealers looking for RX8. I let him know that the calls were from dealers I was working with but he did not believe me. After I bought my ride he called and asked if I was still interested and I told him I had bought my car already. He asked how much I paid and I told him I had paid over $1,000 less than his "best" offer he literally gasped out loud.

So in short I think there are deals out there if you work at it.

Best of luck,
Yogi
