View Full Version : You know you're an RX-8 owner if:
Optimus 10-17-2003, 03:35 PM You know you're an RX-8 owner if:
-you're not single
-you have a family
-you're claustrophobic
-you love the rotary engine
Haris 10-17-2003, 03:39 PM Or if you just own RX8, most people consider you an "RX8 OWNER"!
cruzdreamer 10-17-2003, 03:57 PM You are crazy thinking about this car....even after you take delivery.
You enjoy attention.
You are unique and like to be different.
You are creative and intelligent.
You are good looking and hip even after you have kids!!!
Red Devil 10-17-2003, 04:18 PM The whole supposed "torque issue" doesn't bother you.
You would beat your own children if they didn't think your car was the fastest ever!
<evil cackle>
Red Devil 10-17-2003, 04:25 PM Ike, always trying to cause trouble...:p
zerohour 10-17-2003, 04:47 PM hehe so far i have no kids family am single but ya you got had me at luvin the rotary.
mikeb 10-17-2003, 04:57 PM I fit all except no family yet
ninedeep 10-17-2003, 05:56 PM You know your an owner when you get out of the car with a hot chick next to you, and as your walking away form it you keep looking back at your 8 and not the girl!:D
And its completly obvious that your an owner when you get caught hugging your car by your girlfriend or wife.... :p
And all of the rest above....
RX Guy 10-17-2003, 07:20 PM IF...
After you put your baby daughter down to sleep, you go out to the garage to spend some quality time with the 8.
I do this every night. ;o)
mikeb 10-17-2003, 07:28 PM sticky this thread please
its just too funny
RX-GR8 10-17-2003, 07:37 PM if
you like to spend quality time at gas stations getting fuel.
djmano 10-17-2003, 07:45 PM .....you turn heads like there is no tomorrow
.....the guy in the new 350z or M3 is jocking your ride (not a flame statement in anyway shape or sort)
......your workplace has lots of mirrors that allow you to see your car while you are at work, and you get in trouble from your boss for staring at your own car too damn much
......you shift just for the pure joy of feeling the short throw shifter snick into gear
.......you feel like you can conquer any twisty path with your superior suspension
last but not least.........you feel like your heart doesn't beat anymore.....it spins like a rotor.
ninedeep 10-17-2003, 07:49 PM I agree too.....It has the potential for sticky status.

Thats the best one so far IMO
...if you start seeing triangles everywhere!
RX-GR8 10-17-2003, 09:23 PM if you make excuses to go get milk when you used to say sorry im busy.
Optimus 10-18-2003, 03:30 AM Yep, this deserves to be stickied hehe
Fab 8 10-18-2003, 05:45 AM You drive slowly along the city streets when its quiet so you can see your 8's reflection from the glass panes of office or shop fronts...

That is so true. And the one about looking back when walking with a hot girl, that is also true. Good thread.
graves 10-19-2003, 02:24 PM you only park next to other fine rides in the garage at work (wouldn't want anyone dinging you)
:-)
Optimus 10-19-2003, 04:23 PM you smile at those that just *drool* all over your car.
Optimus 10-19-2003, 04:25 PM ...you saw a cloud shaped rotor.
MyRxBad 10-20-2003, 11:47 AM When you hear 5 redline tones, before you hit cruising speed ;)
pmacwill 10-20-2003, 12:16 PM you drive in the left lane a little close to the median wall to accentuate the rotary note coming from your car
pmacwill 10-20-2003, 12:19 PM when the girl complains "it does feel sometimes like we spend a lot of time talking about your job and your car and your friends and your trips and your dogs and your new clothes"
but you really know what she meant was "you talk about your car too much"

cruising speed > 125? I want to live where you live.
f1 tech 10-20-2003, 01:47 PM you keep singing to yourself, "my little engine goes round and round, round and round, round and round, my little engine goes round and round, round and round....
graphicguy 10-20-2003, 03:47 PM You know you're an RX8 lover if.......
....you make direct eye contact with every staring person in the next lane and just cackle to yourself......
Part of your daily hygiene involves making certain your 8 is perfectly clean before you brush you teeth.
You keep a constant eye on the weather when you 8 isn't parked safely at home.
Your ring up the service department to ask then how your 8 is when it's only in for a standard service.
Your mental shopping list for polishing cloths, wax and tyre shine is more deeply engraved than the normal bread, link, eggs and o/j.
You spend more time thinking about the next accessory you're going to buy for your 8 than you do about the kids christmas presents.
You daydream about nice locations and backdrops to take artistic pictures of your eight.
The only better car you can think of is an Aston Martin - and they're a stupid price anyway!!!
o_town_racer 10-21-2003, 10:21 AM When you drive 500 miles one way just to spend a few hours driving through the mountains and taming those twisties!!!
Optimus 10-21-2003, 04:01 PM you feel like your heart doesn't beat anymore.....it spins like a rotor.
my favorite so far!!
but i second on this one as well:

CruelNewb 10-23-2003, 12:12 AM when you dont turn on the radio coz u just want to hear your engine. :D

I've done that countless times:D
XDEEDUBBX 10-23-2003, 01:09 AM you know your an 8 owner if you have slept in your car...
you know your an 8 owner if you wash your car 2-3 times a week
you know your an 8 owner if you have a baby photo album just for your car

I am guilty of this as I bet we all are. Here's mine:
When everywhare you go, people point and stare.
Stephan 10-24-2003, 10:20 AM "The only better car you can think of is an Aston Martin - and they're a stupid price anyway!!!"
HERE IT'S SO TRUE !!!
The only other car I will respect anymore are the ASton Martin ones. Deep respect.
Stephan
supa-gee 10-25-2003, 06:43 PM ...you make a full walk around your 8, sigh, smile, then jump in the cockpit...
P00Man 10-25-2003, 07:25 PM you take girls for a spin instead of a ride

* You only heard of Zaino once you bought one.
*All RX-7 drivers hover around and wave at you when you're driving it.
*All RX-8 drivers hover around you, just to hear the tune of 2 RX-8's mufflers reverberate against each other.
*All BMW drivers cut in front of you to show they're better than you, but really they just feel insecure.
*All 350Z drivers just ignore you because they sold their RX-8s to get one.
*Everyone else says, "damn, nice car!"
