Funny you say that because all the people I know that sold their RX-8 really do miss it. There's just something very unique and a certain bond between man and machine with the RX-8.

However, the BMW is looking real nice bro. Always loved your sense of style.

Very nice man.

My friend is an internet sales manager at Crevier BMW so it looks like I'll go your route for my next car as well.

These cars have awesome power delivery - so seamless. Do I smell a JB3 chip in the near future?

nice car man. what engine is in it? i dont know alot about the newer bimmers and model codes and their various engines and options. way out of my price range so i dont focus on them too much. Theres a white bimmer that i always seem to drive with to work that looks alot like your car. it has an M badge where the model designation would be, although i know its not an M3, its still a really badass bimmer.

I really like the wheels, i would shave that stupid shark fin off the roof, take the orange out of the headlights and lower it. that would be perfect IMO. im sure whatever you decide to do with it will be badass though. keep us posted!

Very True! I still think the rx8 is far more sexier and handles way better than a bmw ever could. Fortunately the rx8 was sold to my dad, so everytime I pay my parents a visit I can see it in the driveway.

It's one of the last 08's that was on the lot when I bought it.

Overall, I am happy with the car minus the fuel pump problems that plague the **** out of this car. I already have a JB+ in the car set at 75%. Thats good for a 40-50whp bump over stock. The JBE3 is like a 50-70 whp bump over stock.
