After waiting for a lifetime for the 8, all you got to say is "NICE car!"???

Enjoy.

He's got a lump in his keyboard - it's all the poor guy can type...

A new 8 is an emotional moment - be very supportive

Looks great Lensmen. Glad to hear the long wait is finally over.

Make sure to follow-up with more impressions about your 'nice' RX-8.

And after waiting a lifetime, all you can post is a driveway pic? I expected much more from a lensman! :D

Have fun, you are going to love it!

Regards,
Gordon

Congrats!

And I notice you have the rear fog... first one I've seen on a Ti colored 8. So now I know what mine will look like when I install my light this weekend! :D

Looks good! I'd like to see some side profile pics when you get a chance. I'm interested in getting the lip spoiler (if it ever becomes available to us in the US), but can't seem to find pics of it from the side, just from the back.

Thanks.

Nice lip spoiler, like the rear foglingt too. Can we get that in the US? Mazda's euro cars always have better bodykit than what we get -- much more subtle. Mazda USA goes too far over the top imho when it comes to bodykit -- compare euro 6 vs. ours for example...

I believe you virtually need to reduce the car to base elements and reconstitute it to fit the rear fog light...

If anyone has a take on this I'd love to know!
