Yeah, I like getting paid money for doing stuff I'd do anyway but slapping some temporary stickers on the car

NC 2009 Velocity Red RX-8 Grand Touring

Here's mine...only have had it 3-4 months. Renisis II RX-8 has always been on my bucket list.
Clear coat is badly damaged on horizontal surfaces but from 10 yards or so it looks decent. 85,000 on the clock.

Yeah aside from window tint it's stock. Unfortunately it's "spring" in the midwest which means we only get one day of nice weather per week when I can actually drive the car. Last weekend we got a foot of snow (literally when I was supposed to go pick the car up) and then this weekend severe thunderstorms and tornados. Next year the car will not be coming out of the garage until May...

Now you’ve done it - expecting a new thread asking where to find this kit. A perfect opportunity for a site olde timer to go off on some unsuspecting newb. Should be fun.

Bought this ‘07 GT with 62,000 KM (38,000 miles) last month. Picked it up in Southeast Ontario and then drove it to Manitoba via Northern Ontario. It was an amazing drive - beautiful and a blast with the RX8.

Recently finished detailing the car … took a few initial washes, iron and tar decontamination, clay bar, paint chip correction, and machine polish. Then finished it off with a ceramic coat. I can’t believe this car is 17 years old.
