hes joking - although sales for the rx-8 were down
wait til he hears about the next hydrogen model |
It'll ultimately flop so I don't know what the excitement is all about. Hydrogen will never be a widespread fuel source outside of the tinkers out there. Well there might be the Scandanavians!

Think positive the 319 RX8s sold in February is better than the 315 RX8s sold in December 2007. |
+4 for the RX-8!!! Is there talk of deleting the 8 from production? It's not even featured in commercials anymore :tear:
|
for comparison sake, in 1991 the FC RX-7 (last year of its generation) sold around 3000 cars for the whole year
any over/under bets on 3000 cars for the 2008 RX-8? ;) |
That's what I like to see (sarcasm).

interestingly enough in feb when everyone else are in the red, mazda is in the green
