Default Drove an RX-8 tonight.

Let me just say.......

It is a great driving, handling, comefortable, and user friendly car. It is really a blast to drive unless you want to go fast. We really enjoyed our test drive, and if i had $30,000 to blow, we would own one, but its not really something i would go into debt for.

It is just screaming for a transplant. As a matter of fact, if i had Dumblab's money, I would buy one for a LS-1 swap, and sell the renissis peice of crap DOG motor to somebody for twice as much as i paid for the LS-1.....

RX-8 is a bitch car and it looks like the Aardvark from the old Pink Panther cartoons.

Don't get me started.

That car is amazing handling wise. Friend took a 25 mph exit that his TII can't go above 60 safely... took it at 80 in the 8 and it wasn't squeeling the tires. Can't wait 'till they put a more powerfull powerplant in there. (I.E next RX-7... think i'll own one)
