Arby's new car :D
2004 Mazda RX-8.
Non standard stereo is going to be difficult to replace, I'll just have to be creative. 
1.3L, 238HP, 6 speed. $29.5k. Very happy so far. 
I'll plan for a while and then time for some modding.

Oops, wrong general discussion. Move to off topic?
I need to start hanging around more and get back into the mp3car scene.

Engine died on the eclipse. I stripped the stuff out of it and donated the car. The lcd has been sold, I still have the stereo stuff and the console.

Did it really have that many miles on it? |

Eclipse had 100k on it. Too much autocrossing 
It was going to cost much more than the car was worth to get it running again. |

Atleast your replacement was an upgrade.
Gotta love those spinning triangles |

Arby, it's good to see another rotary owner on the forum
Here's a pic of my RX-7 next to my friend's rx-8:
