After a month of ownership and reading these posts everyday I have something to say.


I love my 8

Many of us still feel that way for much longer. And unfortunately, many of us have had that love soured to disappointment, bitterness, anger, betrayal, hatred.


Me? I still love mine, 4.5 years later.

^..............I would agree after about 6 1/2 years now.
Wow....has it really been that long?

LOL... yup. Eight years with this car now, and I just got back from a 600 mile, 12-hours-in-one-day-driving road trip.

And my thought when pulling into my driveway was, "Darn it... home already!"

23.5 mpg BTW... not bad for 74mph with A/C!

I've had my 8 for ten months now... And I think I like it more each day.

2 1/2 months with mine and my girlfriend accuses my Eight as being the second girlfriend.

...I correct my girl and tell her "Huh? You're the second girlfriend."

Two years and my wife is still scared of it. The sound from 8-9k gets her

Mine too. Hates it and says its too hard drive.

I have had mine for about 8 months now. I love mine a lot. It's my favorite car I have ever owned. It is pretty much everything I want in a car. Though, it would be nice if it had about 300hp instead of a little over 200. But, that's a small issue.

I hope you don't drive it in a Minnesota winter.

^ 5 new england winters here as a daily. By far the best winter vehicle I've ever had. And at 99,500 miles, still basically no rust.

Since 2007 and beyond...

I survived the last winter just fine. Not to worried. That's what snow tires are for.

Survived last winter just fine. That's why I have snow tires.

I feel the same way after about 5.5yrs....was debating on selling it but just couldn't bring myself to do it.

MariesRX8

Same here, sometimes I think there is no escaping the emotional addiction, lol. Eight years with mine as of this weekend.

And yet I want a CX-5 sooooo badly, and yet... I keep putting money into the RX-8 instead.

Seriously, it IS a little disturbing. I've owned other cars I've really liked, and sure I've missed them when trading them in. But the idea of "trading in" the RX-8 feels more like abandoning a beloved pet at a shelter or something.

I still feel I got a lot of car for the money I paid.

The 8 remains my most favorite car so far.
