RX-8 and obsession

I am showing signs of obsessional behaviour...I spend all my evenings on the web reading the same reviews and now on this forum!
I have highlighted most of the accessories on the list and apportioned cost (unequally) to my family.

My study, toilet, lounge are littered with flyers, brochures, magazines and various models of the RX (autoart 1:18 is excellent)

The PC is festooned with pics, wallpapers and screensavers and the cd is quietly playing Queen's 'I'm going slightly mad'

.....and I have 5 months to wait untill delivery!

anyone else wanna join me in the nuthouse?

You are soooo sad!!! How can you let a car get to you like that?

Don't tell me that you have done any of the following:-

* Drool over the big pull-out picture of the RX-8 in the new brochure

* Create spreadsheets analysing the BHP, wheelbase, weight, power to weight ratio, 0-60 etc against other cars

* Spend endless hours telling people at work how proud you are of the 1.3 litre sports car you can't have for months

* Driven your current car to the red line just to see what it might feel like in the future

* Looked at RX-Late's web pabe showing the position of the ship every day to make yourself feel better even though you know it's a sham

etc etc

Ooops!!! that might have just been me!! But of course I would never admit it

Ah, I see. I'm awaiting the UK stock from mad4models so that explains it. Thanks.
