Took delievery yesterday morning

OKay so this is my 1st real post here. Anyways a few weeks ago my 05 Volvo S40 T5 was hit by a drunk driver. Totalled. I didn't want another volvo so last thursday I went to Hennessey Mazda in Morrow Georgia with a buddy of mine who is getting a Mazda 3. Anyways, while there i saw the magnificent body lines and interior of the RX-8. Test drove and feel in love. So went home that night determined i wanted the 8. Next morning called a few dealerships for quotes. I wanted a Victory Red with red/black leather and gt package. Anways, one dealership, Jim Ellis had 3. Came back with a quote of 27,280 for a brand new one. Went to the dealerships saturday monring and drove home in my brand new RX8 with 18 miles on the odometer.
Now i'm extrmeley intersted in aftermarket parts and am having a hard time finding the "truth" about some of them. So if anyone has any hard documents aka dyno graphs, lap times difference, and even though i hate to say it, straight line changes ie: 1/8 or 1/4 times; that would be amazing. Anyways heres a pic of my new baby in Helen Georgia this afternoon!
