Buying an RX-8 soon - quick question...
 
The RX-8's that I've test drove, as well as many pics I see, have smoke coming from the exhaust. I'm just wondering if this is a concern, or if it's normal for the RX-8.

Thanks!

I don't know about all of em but mine and my buddies all spew smoke out the tail pipes until they are fully warmed up...

I'm pretty sure most cars do when it is cold, until they are warmed up but I could just be talking outta my ass.

is it smoke or steam?

Is the car warmed up? Is it cold outside?

It hasn't been extremely cold, I'd say 40's.
