This is a VERY nice RX-8!!!

[Herblenny]

Also, For $16,500. I'll throw in all above plus the spare core engine (short block) I have and all the accessories and junk I have for the 8.

By the way, I'm not selling anything separate unless I sell the car by itself... AND Prices above are FIRM!!

[Herblenny]

This is a VERY nice RX-8!!!

I'm not buying anything... Just going to finish up the 7s and not have car payments:)

[djmtsu]

I should have bought an older BMW instead of the new Mazda3, but its too late now.

Bump for a sweet RX-8.

[Herblenny]

Well, I shouldn't of gotten rid of the Acura... Should of driven that thing til it died:)

I also forgot to mention that this is a 6 SPEED with upgraded clutch.

I also bought a used Exedy clutch as a spare..

For $17,000 - I'll throw in my spare 6SP tranny. Pretty much at 17K, you'll have a spare complete drive train to go with this car... I think its a deal:)

Again, Price are firm. If I don't sell it, I don't sell it:)

[fikren]

Just saw this Phil, I can't believe you've finally listed it. I wish I had the cash laying around at the moment but the wife will leave me if she even sees me entertaining the idea. If you could afford to take the hit I'd just keep it, gutt it out and make it a dedicated track car. I think you'd enjoy it far more in that capacity than a dedicatd daily beater. Course its hard to eat 13+k just for a once in a while toy.

[Herblenny]

Well, I bought it for daily and when I tracked it, I loved it!!! Then I had issues with coils and dirty TB made me want to kill myself as troubleshooting those two problems took me months!!!

If I don't sell it, I think I'm just going to paid if off and get my spare engine built or put a 13B REW in it! I have several of those laying around:)

[SLOASFK]

Hey Phil, got any shots of the interior? Black/red leather? It's a beautiful car...

and I do need a new DD...hmmm...

[Herblenny]

Interior is all black... But I bought a black and red steering wheel (not installed) and the 40th anni floormats (also not installed). I'll try to take some pics.

Phil, that's gorgeous. If I wanted an 8, I'd have to get that from you.

Thanks!

Here are the latest pics with some Forgelines. Just replaced the front tires so that it would fit better with the 8.

With Forgelines, it would be extra:)
