Wait a minute, you own both a Corolla and an RX-8? WTF?

Those two are the opposite ends of the spectrum!

Why would anyone even want to REMOTELY TOUCH a Corolla.. I cringe at their sight. It's like death on 4 wheels for me.

i have this "friend" ahem... nudge nudge wink wink
that lifted between the two apexes in 2 in a Cayenne S once
damn if the fullboat Porsche didn't correct itself and continue
on its way ! I had a "moment" or 2 but the owner in the
passenger seat never noticed she just kept talking about
her dog and her kids lol.

Why would saving the FWD be harder? If anything, fwd are idiot proof and easy to correct.

update....
The Rx8 has been traded in on a 2003 Infinity G35 Sport Coupe
I found one in great condition and the price was unbelievable
plus they gave me more for the Rx8 than I payed for it

The Rx8 is a total blast to drive... and I will miss it

Ive wanted the G35 for years...

I have some Rx8 stuff up for sale soon so im not bailing yet lol
