My 1st gens new little brother!!!

Pick this up last week, 2004, ti-grey, 6 spd, grand touring, w/navigation.
This is one sweet ride! As nice as it is my 1st gen is still #1 in my eyes!!! but the RX-8 has a back seat for the kiddies!!

Nice looking cars but what I can't figure out is why with 25 years to work on it Mazda hasn't come up with a car that looks even close to as nice as a first gen. Your picture shows why I prefer my 84/85 GSLs, for 1/10th the cost I get a car I like 10X better. Wouldn't mind having the RX8 for a beater though (yeh, like I can afford it).

Nice looking RX8! Don't see too many grey ones over here, there all either red or black.

I'd definately have one but even a 2004 model is still around $45K for us!!!!
