25 and I don't think the age of the board is a good measurement of the ages of 8 owners so you're still young which makes me still young. What's age but a number anyway?

40 and loving my RX8. I love the way it looks and drives. And I could care less if an ugly as sin WRX or EVO can beat my car. The difference is the RX8 looks amazing going slow or fast. These other pocket rockets people talk about only get noticed when they speed past you. (Boy, that's really important 365 days a year). This car can be enjoyed by all ages, at all speeds and on all roads. All you people in your 20s must be in heaven owning this car. When I was 21 I owned an IROC Z28 which back then had 225HP stock. I love this car more.

Relax, no harm was meant by the message. If I offended you Angela, I apologize. Drink some eggnog Abbid (with the rum) and toast to holiday cheer!

I hit the 1/2 Century mark a few months ago. My first car and the car I learned to drive on was a 1963 VW Bettle with a whopping 40 HP. The shifter was a long thin stalk with a very long throw. The car was great to learn on because you could never go/accelerate fast enough to get into trouble. Someone stole the car a few months after I got my license. My next car was a 350 Camaro, 250 HP with a solid Hurst shifter. Quite a step up.

I had a 1981 RX7 for 21 years, but the 8 has been the best and most fun car I have ever owned.
