Looks like a great car. Really nice color.

Glad you're here!

Congratulations! Though I’m not surprised. Sadly, we rarely hear about the high mileage RX-8s. Then again, we don’t hear much about planes that don’t crash either. :beer05:

all of the miles were driven in New England. I used it regularly to commute to and from downtown Boston during rush hour traffic. I have never been to a track with it.

Congratulations :icon_tup:

Proof of 200K

At 12 years old (single owner) and with the expense of a third rebuilt engine soon, I need to start thinking about buying a new car. The trouble is there's nothing out there nowadays that says "buy me!" like the RX-8 did back in '04.

Sadly, my RRROKIT has found a new home with a mechanic who can fix the idle bearing and transmission a lot cheaper than I can. He wanted a manual transmission car so he could teach his son how to drive a stick. 218,800 miles and almost exactly 14 years to the day since I bought her, she’s starting a new life with a good owner.

She is survived by a 2013 Audi A6 supercharged 3.0 v6 Quattro, which hasn’t been named yet, but gets much better mileage.

I just hit 100k miles in my 09 R3. I bought it 3 years ago when it had 47k miles. Still starts up great! I’m about to change the spark plugs and coils this weekend
