When im driving around in my RX8 i sometimes see its reflection in the window of some shop or something and cant help thinking how hot my car looks

 

you're not the only one. happens all the time. haha

even better is watching your car as it's moving. i had xdeedubbx driving my car and i didn't even know how sick it looked until then.

I let my gf drive my car home when we went to pick up my dad's car for him one day. definately nice to watch!

 

Yes. Another thing I like is when driving through a residential area with the windows down I can hear the sweet whir sound of the wankel reflecting off the curbs.

dang... i haven't let anyone drive my car yet

i DO get a smile THIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIS wide everytime i spot her in the parking lot

 

Totally held up traffic so I could take a pic of the reflection in Napa, CA...

 

haha, the very few people that have driven my car are all rx-8 club members...lol (service dealer, bodyshops aside)

 

I do that too. But, I also get the same feeling when I see another Rx-8. I think to myself, "Do I look that cool...I do...I do look that cool! Sweeeeet!"

No you aren't the only one, i purposely sometimes go around store windows when i'm leaving so that i can see the reflection of the car rolling. Also, i want to see how i look in the car haha. I've also let freinds drive it in the parking lot so i can see it in motion, stunning i have to say esp at night. Rotary def has some kind of exotic tone to it, even with everything left stock. I can't imagine what it might sound like if it had an exhaust or intake.

Next up is, most likely swappin a car with a freind so i can see the 8 in motion, while i'm in someone else car....whenever i see another 8 in motion, i tend to want to follow it to see how it looks from all angles.

 

You have no idea how glad I am that I'm not the only one that does this... There are times when I'm driving down streets with shops on either side, and I'll slow down a little to watch the reflection of my car rolling....

I've asked people "is it vain for me to love the sight of my car in motion?"

 

It's not just me!
People say I'm crazy but I say there's strength in numbers!

 

aha this is one of my favorite things to do when i go to a store lol. i got the disease too.

yea i like to let my friend drive my car so i can look at it in motion.. i got the lowering springs, and the car kinda looks more squat down when its moving.. i like to watch the suspension squat on the bumps and dips lol. i also tell him to stop pretty quick so i can just watch it dip down... love it mahn !

 

actually i do it too. its a nice car

 

I do this with my own reflection.

 

i do this all the time, i sometimes even go out of the way to drive by a nice reflective building!!!!!! and yea.....seeing your car drive is awsome and reminds you how awsome it is, i was suprised to hear how loud it was too......you just cant hear it while inside the car

 

LOL - every morning driving through my deserted downtown at 6:30AM I have four blocks of windows.

 

We are all sick! We must seek psychiatric help!

:P

:D

 

Happens everytime...

 

I can see my car...

 

I see other 8's on the road so infrequently!

 

it's normal

 

normal it is

 

Yep, me too. I do it in slow motion though and when I'm about to open the door I walk around behind the car and say "Dam, look at dat ***"

 

Sounds normal to me. If you do not then I'd worry ...

Everytime when I look at my beautiful WB 8, it reminds me that I need to get the MS spoiler and the strakes before we hit summer.

 

Guilty...a lot. Like some of the others, I go out of my way and take the long way home sometimes just so I can drive past a SINGLE storefront that has a great angle for a reflection...sort of a top down view at about a 10 degree angle. I know EVERY window in my area that gives a good view, and I hit em as often as I get a chance.

My wife rolls her eyes at me when I beg her to drive my car....just so I can drive her minivan and look at my 8. The in-laws recently asked me why SHE was behind the wheel to which I replied "If I'm driving it, I can't look at it".
