I have owned this amazing car for about 7 years now, unfortunately with a baby on the way and too many cars in the driveway its time to let it go. This car runs perfectly, and has been adult owned, and meticulously maintained its whole life by someone who knows the right way to take care of a rotary engine. The basics:
2005 white water pearl RX-8 GT
A/T. Paddle Shifters on steering wheel, and Tach Mode with the console shifter
84,879 miles
Black Leather Interior (great shape, conditioned every few months),Sunroof,Power everything, Bose Soundsystem (with 10" sub), aftermarket Navigation/DVD/Sat. system integrated to stock steering wheel controls
The 8 year, 100k Mazda warranty STILL covers the car until the end of this year for any engine issues. Now for the upgrades
Injen Intake System
Revi air duct to feed air
Shine Autobahn vented side skirts
Evo-R front lip mounted on stock bumper
Kenstyle Rear Bumper, with custom Lebren LED rotary brake light
Authentic KEI Office eyelids,
PRC INGS +1 Rear Spoiler
custom di-noc CF interior kit
AVIC-D3 Head Unit (Navigation, DVD, Sat., CD, etc)
Prosport Evo digital gauges (Volt,Oil temp, Pressure)
Custom stainless Catback exhaust with titanium 3.5" tips
Drilled and slotted rotors front and back
MB Motoring Concave Wheels, painted Sepang BMW Bronze
+ 30 9.5 wide Nitto Tires, plenty of tread left
1.5" lowered, KONI Yellow shocks and Eibach Springs (new, 5000k ago)
Custom LED halo tail lights (one of a kind), sprayed Red with reverse light cutouts
2012 Nissan GTR hood vents, installed into hood
High Flow Midpipe
Lightweight pulleys
8000k hid headlights
There is so much to list for this car. All maintenance has been done on this car over the years, and documented with receipts. Spark Plus/Coils/Battery/Oil/Motor Mounts are ALL new within the last 6,000 miles. The paint looks great and really shines..there are a few small marks and scrapes here and there as can be expected.
This car does have a High Flow Cat pipe on it, so it DOES throw a Check Engine Light every so often because the OEM cat isnt on there. It will come and go, but for inspection purposes you may want to get a used OEM pipe, or buy a Cobb Accessport to disable the light for this. I can point you in the right direction for that. This car drives amazing, and has a great deep tone to the exhaust when you open it up, without sounding too loud.
*I will also throw in an AutoBahn Rx8 front bumper I had on the car before. This is a 600-800 bumper, it just needs some paint.

Modded budget Mazda Miata takes on new Porsche Boxster in more challenges
Tue, 23 Sep 2014Earlier this month, our friends across the pond at Auto Express released the first in a two-video series that would see them try and build up a second-generation Mazda MX-5 Miata that could best a standard Porsche Boxster around the track. While that first video detailed the mods to the MX-5 - a supercharger, some suspension upgrades and a new set of super-sticky rubber being chief among them - and set baseline lap times for the stock car, today, we have the results of the 5,000-pound ($8,200) upgrade job.
Of course, we aren't going to spoil those for you. You'll need to watch the full video, which recaps the upgrades before digging into a comparison of both straight-line-speed differences between the 2.7-liter Porsche Boxster and blown Miata, as well as their behavior and lap times on the track.
Take a look and let us know what you think in Comments.
2014 Mazda6: Winter's End Update
Mon, 14 Apr 2014The Winter Without End is seemingly dead. Outside my office windows, my brown and yellow lawn is fully exposed to the increasingly powerful sunshine, the morning birdsong is louder than anything until the garbage trucks start rolling, and I'm seriously considering having the summer tires put back on my personal fleet. That last one is a little scary, as I'm a firm believer in the April Snow Jinx, but you get the idea.
The long-term Mazda6 has also long since left my driveway. Looking back on my notes from the time it was in my charge, however, I see all remarks are dominated by one highlighted section at the top: "worst winter drive of all time." I hardly need the reminder, to be honest. Here's what happened.
When the Mazda showed up at my door, we'd already fitted the thing with its new winter rubber: Bridgestone Blizzaks. Plunking down for dedicated snow tires was a near necessity this year - as it almost always is in Michigan. We didn't see much reprieve from snow-choked, iced over roads here in Ann Arbor, and the knobbier rubber proved invaluable in getting me out of my house time and again.
Carmakers, NHTSA to unveil auto-emergency braking agreement tomorrow
Wed, Mar 16 2016Happy St. Patrick's Day Eve. Tomorrow, there will be green beer, corned beef and cabbage, and automatic emergency braking for all. Weird combo, we know. But on St. Patty's we can expect an official announcement from a pact of automakers making auto-braking systems standard equipment by 2022. That's per a report from Reuters, which cites three sources familiar with the plans. Originally announced in September 2015 by 10 automakers and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the agreement is expected to be even larger when the details are unveiled tomorrow. According to Reuters, the manufacturers of 99 percent of the US domestic market's vehicles will be represented by the new agreement. It's believed that standard AEB systems could prevent thousands of accidents across the country. Expect more on the official announcement when it's made. Related Video:
