So far I have done a few things to the Solstice:
1. Fujita Cold Air Intake
2. Chrome Door Locks
3. Custom Floor Mats
4. Black Shorty Antenna
5. Eibach Springs
6. 20 Inch Konig Unknown Wheels
7. Aluminum Pedals
Just put in the Shop today to add a few more parts for HIN:
1. Rk Sport Front Bumper and Side Skirts
2. RK Spoirt Carbon Fiber Dual Exhaust Diffuser
3. Magnaflow Dual Exhuast
4. Oznium Full Glow Kit
Here is a current pic before the current installs. Will hopefully be getting car back friday or saturday and will post up some more pics.
(BTW: the springs where not installed in this pic at all. It is alot lower.)
wow, that is nice. i wish i could afford one of those
They are actually fairly cheap! Was alot less than I expected out the door. Have less than 27 grand into it right now even with all the parts and installs that I didnt do myself.
not too shabby
i just bought an 04 eclipse spyder, so no more cars for me for a while
at least until this is paid off.
cant wait to see pics of it with the kit installed. be sure to keep us updated.
Cool deal! Man! Think the wife is finally gonna get rid of the Gas Guzzling RX8 and get something new. She really likes the HHR, so who knows. Will be posting the PICs asap!
Looking good!
I want an Rx8, I havent looked in to them, but its something Im in the market for.
i like it....are you happy with the way the roof closes?

Buddy, You dont want one!
Positives:
They are great to look at.
Handle Great!
Very Comfortable.
And very nice Interior!
Now to the bad.
14 gallon tank and barely hits 200-210 the full tank.
Real F'in Slow.
Loses Value FAST! We bought the limited Edition model 15 months ago and Blue book is already 6 grand under what we owe on it! I was pist! And we pay almost double payments on it each month! Figured the "Limited" Shinka Model would at least hold value!
Aftermarket Parts are Expensive and worthless! I added CAI, Header, High Flow Cat, and Exhuast: Got a full 9 horses to the ground. Cost me over 2 grand. Sounds @!#$ bad ass, but thats about all i got out of it!

I just hate that it is manual to close and not automatic. But it is real easy to open and close. To pay under 20 grand new though made it well worth it to me. I am happy with the car all the way around so far. Just cant wait for hahn to come out with the Stage 4 turbo kit for it and see what this thing can do with some real power. He ran his wives Stage 4 into the 12s on 19s and street tires with factory internals and tranny. So this thing does have potential!
Thanks for the heads up! I want something fast, surely not just something that LOOKS fast!
Well then stay away from the 8. Great car all around....just not living up to the RX line up of the past. And no problem. Just would hate for u to look hard into the car and then find out it isnt what u wanted at all. Myself after owning my SRT-4 (400+ hp) I am actually going back to just building the cars for looks. Well mostly cause of the cops and getting arrested for street racing going 4 over the speed limit.....?!?!
Went to the shop today and the Side Skirts are on and painted! They are putting on the Front bumper tomorrow and hopefully the C/F Rear Diffuser and Dual Exhaust. Wanted to take the pics but just with it half done didnt wanna post that up! Sides look real nice! Huge difference!
