2013 Vans RV-8

N668RF is a beautiful, well-built, IFR-capable 2013 Vans RV-8 Experimental based at North Las Vegas Airport (KVGT). With only 307 hours total time airframe, 285 hours on a Lycon-overhauled Lycoming IO-360-A1A, excellent 78/80 compressions across all cylinders, a Hartzell constant-speed propeller, dual-screen Garmin G3X panel, Garmin GTN 650 WAAS GPS/Nav/Com, Garmin transponder, Garmin stereo audio panel, and 2-axis autopilot, this RV-8 is a sharp, fast, and highly desirable example of one of Van's most respected tandem-seat designs. Finished in a striking metallic blue and silver custom paint scheme, and equipped with leather seating, smoke system, rear seat rudder pedals, dual electric seat heaters, and numerous premium cockpit upgrades, N668RF offers real cross-country capability with the look, feel, and performance RV buyers want. Always hangared, complete logs, no known damage history, and a fresh 06/26 condition inspection make this a serious RV-8 for a buyer who wants performance, avionics, and pride of ownership in one package.
