Wow, again :)
I need to spout my joy somewhere and this seems like the place. I rode in an RX8 again today, had the salesman drive it for me. =/ But it was a Ford dealership and the salesman was used to driving Mustangs all day, to say the least, he was highly impressed. I informed him all about the 9k RPM red line :P At first he was shifting like a normal car, but after i TOLD him to stay in second gear on the highway and hit the red line, he was definitely WOW'd and so was i again It was just amazing, it whirred all the way up to the beep, awesome, pure awesomeness. I dont know how fast we were going in that gear, my guess was like 70? But he did bring it up to 96 mph in 4th or something, and i couldn't even tell we were at that speed. The car was completely stable at that speed, more stable then the car i own right now at 20 mph :P I just absolutely CAN NOT wait until i get this car, i have gotten nothing but smiles from it
1 month, Mazda RX8, here i come
PS : I am 17, that's why i couldn't drive it myself.

i'd imagine that if it's at a ford dealership, in the hands of someone who's used to driving mustangs, its definetely used. Break-in shouldn't really be an issue i'd assume.
at any rate, glad to hear you've been out for a spin a few times. I'd take some type of older relative with me before i'd go riding around with dealers that many more times. That has to grow tiresome...i mean, the whole excitement of the car is driving it...not riding along. Little surprised that with him driving along, he didn't even let you drive it...that's kinda odd.

second that. There is no more liability to a 16 year old with a drivers license then a 40 year old couple that takes it out. Yur not buying cigarettes. lol
however, if you did let on in any way that yur not ready to buy at this very minute, it sounds right down the middle. They just didn't wanna give you the wheel.
