great we love the rx8..but whats your second car?
 

do u guys have a second car that u love as much as your 8?..oh wait let me rephrase...what is your second car? anyways i ask since we are planning on getting a 2nd car...maybe something being gas efficient...... 3.50 for premium gas just sux :( . also we need space since going to costco and home depot is a pain lol

Jeep Wrangler.. :) Take out the back seat and you have a 2-seater with plenty of room. Get a Jeep Wrangler Unlimited if you need room and the back seat installed. :)

hopefully, this will be my 2nd car (once it's available)

Probably with a Toyota 1zz supercharged and SMT or a 2zz and a 6spd.

Nothing like a 1700lb (with interior and driver) mid-engined car with 4.xx sec 0-60's, and mid to high 30's mpg (guestimate).

My second car is a 88 mazda RX-7 NA, two seater with a lot of space on the back.

1995 Ford Probe GT as seen in this thread... https://www.rx8club.com/rx-8-multimedia-photo-gallery-6/just-some-pics-my-girls-90409/

It's a very fun car and gets 30mpg highway. :)

1993 Mazda Mx-6 LS. Faster and almost as much fun as the 8.

My second car is a 1991 Mitsubishi Galant VR-4 with upgrades. Fastest car I've ever owned, and the best car in the snow I've ever owned (It's my winter car, but I drive it to work, until i move into my new house). I knock down 30 MPG if I stay off the boost, or I get significantly less if I beat on it, but have more fun.

My third car (my wife's car, now) is a 1996 BMW 318ti. 35 MPG, and if you get the clubsport model, it handles really nice. Great all-around car (and it's a hatch, so it has lots of flexible room).

What do you have done to the MX-6 to make it faster?

My 2nd car is the '64 Stingray rag top.

Second car? Must be nice. I don't need a second car anyway, but I guess if I won the lottery maybe I'd get one.

Mazda Tribute LS-V6

civic.

99 cavalier, i'll keep it until the engine dies

96 Maxima, pushing 175k miles but still runs smooth.

96 Toyota pick up truck with 60K. One owner. Picked it up from my friend for $1,400. Thing looks brand new. Looking into a 240 real soon.

CAI, 2.5" catback exhaust, obx headers, high flow cat, AIT resistor, and the main thing is I bumped up the timing 5 degrees and have to run 93 octane. Using the same Gtech... .3 faster to 60 and 13.9 in the quarter (.9 faster than the 8). I don't necessarily trust the Gtech numbers but they are good for a comparison. Faster in a straight line but definitly doesn't handle as well.

The 8 isn't my daily driver, I have a 2001, B-3000 for that. The wife drives her 2003, Miata or our 2006, Jeep Wrangler. The Miata gets great gas mileage of all my vehicles.

I love my daily driver, it's a 2002 Toyota Tacoma Dbl Cab Prerunner...Carries the kids and the dog, hauls the toy trailer (dirt bikes and quads) and gets 21-22 mpg. Hard tonneau cover (locks) is great for grocery haulin', etc.

My other speed fix (I love sportbike riding) doubles as a gas/time saver, a 2001 Honda CBR 929.

My wife's vehicle is a 2003 Toyota Sequoia Limited (the "family car"). It's a great, plush, as well as comfortable ride, gets 17-18 mpg on the freeway. It carries a month's worth of groceries in one trip.

My wife has an '05 Honda Pilot EX-L w/RES and we also have a '99 Honda Civic EX Coupe 5M. The Civic gets the same gas mileage as my Pilot and RX8 put together!

E36 M3 coupe. yay.

Miata is my next daily driver, I had a 92 SE-R before also and it was a great little beater.

If i get a raise soon I'll probably make the 8 a daily and pick up an Elise.

The 8 is my second car. I drive a '96 Ford Probe GT ATX for commuting to work. It's taken a beating but has required very few repairs for a 120k car. Maintenance costs have been fairly high due to the beating, but that's true with all the cars I have had.

Actually, I find the transition from a Probe GT/MX-6 LS to a RX-8 fairly direct. 7k redline, all top end/no low end, handles better than it does a quarter mile, really fun drives, and both have the cupholders right where your elbow is when shifting. The probe has infinitely more trunk space.

2nd car? My 8 is my daily driver...and we have a Mazda6 for my wife. One day...my 8 might be my 2nd car and the new Camaro or Evo X would be the daily.

It all depends on what Mazda does with the future of the RX8. But...I don't got the money for 2 cars nor the space (2 car garage).

1 car and 2 sets of tires. All I need in Chicago.
