Nice looking 8 there. You remind me of one of my old assistant managers, the gym was his home away from home.

Hope you enjoy the car, Hp/Tq numbers don't stand a chance against smiles per mile. :)

hehe thanks :D

haha funny to let that distract you :lol: but yeah i really hated the evo for its harsh ness. not suitable for daily driving, just fun to drag and stuff. and its really unreliable and the mpg is wayyy off! so i really dont miss it at all. also not the impreza's i had. dont want to see any of those cars ever again haha :naughty: i would really like to try owning a 350z though

Yeah I debated between the Rx8 and 350z for years. I eventually realized I preferred to own a 4 seater. I'm sure you'll be happy!

The rear looks way low than the front. Do you have a boom box inside the trunk, or it's just the way it's lowered? Anyway, red looks so hot looking!

Larissa8 05-12-2011 12:12 AM

Beautiful car............ and damn you have a lot of money >_<

JantzenRX-8 06-02-2011 10:37 PM

Lookin good.

IMO you need the little OEM front mud guards if you plan on keeping the look stock. It evens out the stock aero package if you ask me.

monchie 06-03-2011 12:21 AM

From the look of it, the red car looks bigger than the black car. The red car looks like it's on steroids or something. Anyway, both cars looks clean and sharp.

You must show us your ways of going through 7 cars at the age of 22.

philip53 06-16-2012 02:19 AM

^^^ That, how have you gone through that many cars at such a young age? And just had to say nice evo haha :)

Wolfe 06-20-2012 06:17 AM

All great looking cars. And Dog.

Javii 06-20-2012 08:33 AM

At least we know the fountain of gold is in Iceland, and Svenni seems to know exactly where.

You're a really good photographer btw! You capture all of the RX8 beautiful angles just right, and made the dog stay still long enough.

You guys are both wrong. NYC isn't uniformly bad like you guys are indicating. Some parts are worse than others. All you have to do is know those parts or drive through slow and ignore people honking and cutting you off while you do.
