Very nice man. Flashy yellow FTW. Your Rx8 reminds me of a Rx8 here in my area. I was in the car with "onethreefive" on the highway and this yellow RX8 just came outta no where and wanted to race us. We didn't do anything illegal because we were on a public road. He ended up doing a ricer flyby anyway

Do you have any problems with the engine? There seems to be a lot of TSB out for the engine problems in earliar years.

No problems with my engine so far have done over 75,000 km our cars here in OZ seem to have less problems than yours in US , different states of tune and fuel etc .

The biggest hurdle is the crappy Mazda mechanicks they told me my engine needed a rebuild when really all that was required was a new set of ignition coils .

I purchase most of my spare parts from the US Mazda dealerships get them delivered within a 6 - 10 day time frame at 60 % cheaper then i can buy them here in OZ

I have my own rotary teck guy so my car runs fine , but its time for a change , i hope the 370 Z has the extra torque that rotaries lack and has the refined handling of the RX8 .

Cheers
Michael
