As a newbie aka buyer to be I wanted to ask the general forum members how they feel the ownership experience has been.

I am coming out of an AWD FX 35 Infiniti that is a fantastic car but the seats do not agree with my 59 year old back and knees. Do we have any older gents/gals on the forum that can comment on making a long 8-9 hour trip with the RX 8.

Those that live in the Southwest I would like you to share your comments on the A/C function and general cooling system and how it works in 90f+ temps.

For those of you in rain climates-how has the RX done in the wet?

How has the reliability issues been.......since most of you are new owners yourselves the first 90 days of ownership seem to be a litmus test on problem areas.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Derek.
