Finally got mine.... and now questions
Finally got my rx8.
It's 2004 manual, sport package, rotary accent, appearence package. 60 miles on odo.
So the question is: since the VIN ends in 130000-ish number and I don't trust the dealer. What should I check to see if all flashes/TSBs/etc?
Is there anything special/more to do during break-in period?
Thank you.

Break in and TSB lists
From my favorate links
Break in info - Also Read the manual

TSB list
http://www.finishlineperformance.com/rx8/docs/
Grats on your new ride.
As far as you list of what TSBs have been done to your car I believe a log is created and maintained by Mazda on the cars, you would have to ask a dealer to run your Vin.

Just got mine, too!!!
:D
Silver 04 MT GT package.
I've coveted this car since I saw a Motor Trend "sneek peek" 2 years or so ago!
I thought I wanted the yellow, but the dealer had "gussied up" the thing with chrome wheels and a bunch of other dumb add-ons.
I saw mine sitting off the the side on a back row and looked in. (the Sunroof was a big deal to me)
Once I saw the red/black leather seats, I had to sit in it.
Then I DROVE IT! Wow Zoom Zoom!
The sales guy (young kid, evidently VERY new to the car biz) took me down a curvy road, let me see how well it handled.
I got it for invoice, minus the 1500 rebate, and they paid off my car (Mitsubishi Galant ES that I was about 1000 upside down in, when you factor in mileage and that it needs some paint conditioning)
We had a time getting my child seat in it. (mainly first getting to the latch hooks and then one of the straps came undone on the seat, so I had to un-fasten the seat to get that put back right.
I'll have to work with my little spotter mirror so I can see my son better (it mounts to the windshield) and figure out where to store my CDs and whatnot. (the Mitsu had a nice CD storage place in the center console)
My wife doesn't think I'll like the silver, but after looking at it some, I'm really hooked on it.
by the way, I did make sure they had done the M flash, and even checked the tires and put in a new battery. (they had to jump it off when I test drove it, I didn't want to have to deal with battery issues)
