But I'm posting anyway.

My 2005 Mazda RX-8 ended up like this in November thanks to a Silver Mazda 3.

I'm back and I'm happy. :)

Grats on getting back into an 8

why a mustang? =/

why a mustang? =/

I've heard they're more funner at first, but after a while the RX-8 is more funner.

u mean MORE FUN....no such thing as MORE FUNNER.....lol

No. He meant funner. Get with the program.

When I say more funner I mean more funner! Understand my little nooblet?

Nice....so how did the accident happen?

MORE VERY MUCH FUNNER!!! lol

True. The RX-8 can't touch the Mustang in a straight line. Power on demand rules.

But.

The RX-8 is the better car.

Long story short. I didn't see her, she didn't see me. Turning at a blind intersection. Coast looked clear, then there she was. Side swiped the front and took everything with it. Her car was barely damaged. No one was put at fault. So while I didn't get a ticket, my insurance still had to cut me a $25,000 check so my rates did rise. Not too much though.

^ No wonder my rates rose! :eek:

That generation Mustang went way too long....its aged.

You should have gotten a Crossfire, it's the most funnerest car ever!

Yea...not gay. :)

Agreed. It's a 2004 but feels SO dated. The interior just upset me after about a month.

I suppose there was only so much Ford could do for a decades old car, but I agree that the interior is pretty awful compared to the new one and the 8.

So what are the stats on your new 8?

WHO ARE YOU?!?!?!?!!



actually i do remember you, you tested the obx exhaust.



congrats on the 8 too.

thanks. :)

The stats are it's a 04 RX-8 with 28,000 miles. Leather, NAV, sunroof, 6 speed, HID lights...all that jazz. Basically everything available but the aero package and a spoiler.

I already have a spoiler on order as well as exhaust....OBX of course. :)

All TSB and recall work done?

go the hell away, noob.

Part of that first Blue car is now a part of MY car. It's the circle of Life..

I think i know you
you bought an OBX exhaust off ebay and you talk like a pirate.

I hate seeing 8's in crashes, but am always amazed at the way the crumple! I feel so safe.

^ true that. I'm amazed how safe this car's crumple zones have been designed. The only crashes I've seen (in pictures) that have the cage compromised were the ones that went on fire.

Other than that, no matter how bad the accident, this car really shines even when crumpled. Speaking from experience here.

its not the most funnerest but the bestest!

All TSB and recall work done?

yup. :)

I never saw the Mustang in person, so, for my own benefit, I'll assume it never existed. You just walked everywhere for 6 months.

Well I hope you are start posting me so we get to know you.

When I say more funner I mean more funner! Understand my little nooblet?
rx-8 is the funnerest!!

and nooblet is an awesome word

I like nublino. It's Italian!

Congrat. Your 8 looks exactly the same as mine. WB ... no spoiler no clear corner no strakes (yet ...), with nav. system, even the rusty hubs look the same ...

Funnerest

I joined December 01. I rule.

Just got it home. It feels so good to be back in a 8. So very good indeed.

Chris....that is acceptable. :)

if you have the right mods, it is much more gooderest funnerrrrr kinda like most bestest, but more gooder. el grande.

beers :beer:
