Oooo I like that sedan better, wasn't there a big controversy over actual HP in the rx8? like a difference of 20hp?

...except other rotaries. LOL sorry man i had to.

I drove the RX-8 a few times... its one of the slowest sports cars i've ever been in. I took it and thrashed it through some back-road twisties keeping it spinning around 7500-8000+ RPM. It just didn't have the ***** I'd hoped for ...but to each their own.

It a great car for a little backseat driver - those doors are really useful. Overall - congrats on the purchase. but do us all a favor and TURBO IT! That car needs something extra!

i also fogot to mention i got it for employee discount.....
one of the major reasons i chose it, i also like the coupe look with 4 doors.
it is a slow sports car but i did beat a 350z, AT THE TRACK!
as far as turbo.... i dunno yet, i wanna get a chip, then prolly nitrous.
turbo is way too expensive, also much harder for cops to see....
