Decided to Keep it...

My lease ended on my 2006 Phantom Blue GT AT. I was prepared to turn it in and at the last minute I decided to keep the 8 and buyout the lease. I have really enjoyed this car and the "fun factor" is still there when I drive it!

You should've return it, and get a MT instead.

+1. Nevertheless, if you are happy with you AT rx-8 for the last few years, then so be it.

Having a MT is always my first choice, but when you drive the LA freeways and have bad knees you have to compromise!!! Having the tiptronic and paddle shifters lets me have some fun
