Don't have an RX-8 though. Still considering ordering one in December.

Where you at?

Red seems to be the popular color here. My last car was red and I just wasn't happy with it. Thought I'd try something different this time.

Flooding in LA.

I live in Lafayette, and am considering puchasing the RX8, but am concerned with this floding problem I keep reading about.

Has this happened to any of our Louisiana peple?

namvet66: "I live in Lafayette, and am considering puchasing the RX8, but am concerned with this floding problem I keep reading about."

I've had my 8 for 2 months and have not had this problem. It seems that flooding is caused by cold start/stops. If you're careful about making sure that you warm the engine before you cut it off then you shouldn't have any problems. There are lots of other threads on this subject if you want to do more "research" though.

I absolutely LOVE mine more and more everyday. :D

OK Rotorheads. I have been contacted by 3 Rx-8 owners who are interested in joining us for our next event.

Shoot me an email if you are interested in being added to our mailing list and joining us in upcoming events. Also, visit our Sevens on the Shore club website and see pics. of Princess Neak, autocross champ in her Velocity Red 8.
