Talking My 08 rx8 (:




She's a beauty! Traveled a little but I got her, stealership, you all may be mad because it is a AT but I got to good of a deal on it to pass it up!

It does have the option for manual just no clutch. She has 45k beautiful color, two tone between green and light blue, she is a 40th Anniversary and a GT, the stealership went 2500+ under for me so I had to give in.

Payments are great and affordable! Comfortable and reliable!

Very nice!
The car ain't so bad, either

At least you got a 6 port auto. Pretty much the same power as manual, so you have nothing to be ashamed of
Congrats, enjoy and get some more pics up!

Nice car! Its good to are your searching has paid off. And an 08 too. There for a bit it looked like you might have had to ssettle for an 05. But anyways I see the rims are the ones based off of the rotor. I didnt know those came out in 08. I thought they were only on the series 2. But anyways go out and have fun driving. Unless I'm mistaken I believe you have a slightly updated suspension then some of us

That is all the photos I have so far...


It is great driving it, almost drove 200 miles already haha! I have however noticed vibration while at a stop or in park.... And a whistle when I hit the gas...

I am taking it for a oil change tomorrow or Tuesday and they will check coils, mouts, plugs, and etc. but just noticed it today..... =/

The picture in the grass was taken from an angle Roidz


Thank you all, getting an 8 was worth the wait and I am absolutely in love with her.... been non stop thinking about her and trying to figure out a name for her.

What kind of vibration? Possibly motor mounts. Or just normal transmission vibe?
Non stop thinking about the 8 is what we all experience! It's why we call it "the addiction"

As far as mods go not sure yet, cannot do to much do not want to void warranty, tint, oil change and a sticker on it is going on tomorrow hopefully...


I am thinking it is the mounts but could also be the transmission, hard to tell, it only does it after I have been driving for about 30 min or more... the whistling usually comes when the vibration does... I am hoping the oil change will help because it is due but I still need to check other things...


I do however have some bad news, no idea why I did not find it the day I bought her but I found some over spray on the right side by side window, barely but there... luckily I know someone that does paint and body and he knows how to get that crap off


but other then those problems shes been doing really well.... shes a eye catcher and a joy to have with me. She keeps me thinking positive on things.
