Welcome my RX-8 to the forums!
2005, bought it new 3 months ago (May 2006) with 300 miles. $24,000
$2k down, $22k financed... 5.99% APR, 84 months
Touring Package, Bose, Moonroof, Traction Control, 6-speed, appearance package,
Velocity Red,
woot woot!
getting between 16-18.5 mpg
So I'm paying $325/mo... about $500 in gas per month :-X and in 3 months I already have over 6000 miles. Insurance used to be $125 a month.... with Geico. I'm 24...but they tripled my rate b/c of 2 speeding tickets last year... one over 20 miles, one 5 miles over.
ugh.... so now I'm with progressive paying $208/mo. not too bad -_-
Just wanted to introduce myself. Anyone want a new Fully loaded business class Sony laptop for $300 after old dell laptop trade-in? or $500 after any old non-Dell laptop trade-in? I'm a corporate Account manager at my job selling IT to businesses. Sorry if this is the wrong place to post.
I love you all

thanks :D
I'm fighting to keep it. I got that kind of financing with a 604 credit score... so I think the manager really helped me out (OnPoint credit union--a very good one too)...
I've been tempted to get like an Si which is pretty fun, and gets such good gas mileage...
I like going up to the mountain to snowboard... :x maybe i can get a rack? lol :x
