but today i FINALLY took delivery of a RX-8

'04 base model, titanium, rotary accents, 6 cd changer and cassette player, the usual :D

just want to officially say hi to the forum as an actual 8 owner, instead of just another onlooker :D

oh yeah it's a new '04 with a June '04 build date, with only 45 miles at delivery (30 of those were from my test drives ), so barring any new TSBs, I should be good to go :D
