i will post picks up soon when i pick up my new beast but to break it down its

black leather
sunroof
reverse parking sensors
besides that its as it came off the assembly line

ive always been a massive fan of the rx8 since they first came out when i was only 13! and have been dying to get my hands on one since then!

im deffinetly keen to start playing around with the little beast and any info tips or any further info you guys can give me would be greatly appreciated

in the sort future im looking to deffinelty upgrade the exhaust and air intake to unleash the lil sound of the rotar :P
so what do you guys recomment exhaust wise?
i have herd very good things about the borla exhaust and the mazdaspeed exhuast also??

Hymee and Ric Shaw are two more highly recommended exhaust brands to check out 8)

You'll have to let us know what's happening with the rotary if you hear anything... Allegedly there's something big for the RX-8 next year :!: :?: :?

rx8club.com has more info then here. but the people here are nicer. lol
for parts... anywhere. just depends if you like japanese (expensive) stuff or american or home grown.
for japanese - japanparts.com
-rhdjapan.com

american...too many, but the popular one is blackhaloracing.com

aussie- hymee...performancedesign.com.au
and more but i ran out of motivation to give a long list. lol

cheers for the warm welcome guys
as far as i have herd so far from mazda is that there isnt any real plans for the rx8 in the coming future
there will be releasing a model i believe laterin this year or early next year such as aolong the lines of the rx8 gt but with a few small modifictions to the current model
its kind of a mid model face lift and from then on there isnt any massive plans or any plans at all i believe for the rx8
:( hear breaking but thats not a deffinite..
anyway thanks for the info, deffinetly will be hoping to get cracking on some parts for my new beast asap, and a cruise would be an awesome idea id be very keen for!!!

Last I heard one Mr Alan Horsley stipulated that Aus dealers are not allowed to stock or support MS parts

Sorry, wasn't meaning anything negative towards the dealers and didnt realise you were already stocking stuff. Personally I would love to see dealers start stocking MS stuff.
