New 09 RX8 R3

Postby Darren08 » Tue Jun 05, 2012 9:14

Figured Id introduce myself on this forum too. The GF and I just picked up an 09 R3 with 17k on it. It's her daily driver, but I like to steal it every few days. We don't really have any mods planned for it in the immediate future (maybe intake and exhaust) because she really likes it in its stock form, and she wants to learn how to drive it and eventually do a bit of tracking or autox.

The car handles beautifully, and I was sold on it the first time I drove it. And actually I want to make my ms3 handle close to what the rx8 does. Lol. Anyhow here's a few pics. Don't mind my Vanna White poses next to it...

Yes I agree, in stock form the R3 is easily the best looking of the rx8's. I absolutely love the Recaro's in that thing. I have been tempted many times to steal them from the rx8 and put them in my mazdaspeed lol!
