RX8 to Magnum RT
Well I did it. Not sure for better or worse. After totalling my 8 (not my fault in the slightest), I went for a Magnum RT. I could not afford an '05 8 becuase Mazda did not try to get me too. The payments came out to 100 dollars more a month for a lease 
So I had to say goodbye.
I went to the Dodge dealership and checked out the RT, those things are pretty luxorious and fast
!! After seeing it I had a lot to think about. After night I went out and bought it with my dad with payments at 40 dollars more than my '04 8 for a Dodge Magnum RT rwd, top of the line (except no sirius radio). I thought that was sweeeeeeet...Pictures to come!

I want an rx-8, but can't help being a little intrigued by the magnum (cargo space...), and it comes in an AWD version as well.
Glad you're happy, waiting for a certain other member to say "I told you so" though...

Found out yesterday as well that my dad cancelled his SRT-8 order He can afford just about any car he wants but he's still pretty frugal. He gets jealous of how white my car is and his looks a little "pukey" in comparison, and he didn't want to pay the gas guzzler tax.
Here's my old review if you're curious.
