Farewell...

Hey AZ RX8 crew, Vividracing and others who have made the forum a great place! I sold my beloved mistress (rx-8) and wished to let you all know what a great time I've had with everyone here. The forum has been a great source of enjoyment for me and was a great compliment to owning the 8. Perhaps another rotary lies in my near future however. (I may be shopping for a 3rd gen rx-7)

I wish you all the best in everything.

Zoom Zoom,

Jesse Mcfarland

I know I'm horrible. The springs went with the car. It was actually a big selling point.
I sold the baby for a few reasons. My wife got laid off and I needed one less car payment. The RX-8 was an easy sell. Also...honestly I want something with more power. I'm selling my house in a few months and there is a good chance I'm going to buy a 3rd gen rx-7 for my fun car. Although in a year or so I may consider buying another 8 if more power upgrades become available. If you need any info on the springs when you get them just pm me. I put 10000 miles on my springs and they were great.

TBO, im considering getting rid of my cartoo. The low gas mileage couped with my high mileage drive to work, is significantly denting my pocket book. I also want something with more power, and im pretty sure its going to be an FD as well. speaking of, theres a 11,500$ red one on auto trader right now with 91k miles....

Icemastr's FD usually got over 400 miles to a tank, its a 20.9 gallon tank I think. Not much better gas mileage than an 8, and significantly worse if your in the throttle.

Ditto what Kari said - I never get much better than 19-20 GPM with my FD. Even less, when I'm having some serious "fun" with it.

I am going to join you.

C6 here I come.

My decision was due in part to Mazda customer service at Galpin in SCV and Mazda Thousand Oaks.

Abbid just pointed me to this thread. Not sure how I missed it. Sorry to here that you’re leaving Dark. Are you going to pass on your AZ member email list? If so who is the new event organizer so I know who to bother with PMs when I get my car back?
