why is it to be expected? other cars with better performance get better mileage. even corvettes get better mileage. if you didn't really care you wouldn't have brought it up at all. rx8 owners are so funny. just stop worrying about the mileage because there is NOTHING you can do about it.

i'm just messing w/ you. the rx8 is a very nice car and you should be glad you got it. the z and other cars have their own issues too. no car is perfect. well some, but they're really expensive.

If they are expensive they are not perfect. The perfect car would pay you to drive it.

I love the car too. So far, I haven't had ANY of the problems I've seen listed on these boards. I don't even mind the gas mileage. IT BUGS THE HELL OUT OF MY WIFE THOUGH!! LOL :D

Why are you so freaked out with the 8's milage? I think its quite normal compaired with all the other fast cars I've driven! Getting 450km or sometimes even more than 500km out of one tank (60lt) is just so normal....
So what is the Z's milage, how many miles can you do with its 70lt tank?

He/she/it's not. He/she/it just hates the car, which, if you read every last one of his/her/its posts, you'll realize pretty quickly. Claims not to be a troll, but spends every moment on this board trying to subtly put the car down, but in a "nice" way. Not worth your time to bother with.

My 95 Z28 is a gas guzzler...and yes, my wife hates it too. Now, my point to her about the RX8 is:

1) It's a 4 door and it has a place for baby seats.
2) It gets better gas mileage than my Camaro.

Ding-Ding-Ding...I think we have a winner! :D
