what the hell do they drive, a lightweight high-hp car with no recalls? I don't think so.

BTW; the RX-8 is one of the lighter cars on the market today at under 3,000 lbs, and is in the top 5 lightest 4-doors.

Whatever.
Let them think the 8 is junk, it's their loss.

Why bother butting horns with them when you love your car?

I'm just content in the fact that I am secure enough in my car that I don't have to go tear down other people's choice in transportation.

It's one of the lightest 4-seat RWD cars around, one of the cheapest RWDs around, and the recalls haven't affected many owners at all. It's quarter mile isn't great but it's the thrill of the Mazda handling and one of a kind rotary, along with some practicality.

Cheers to them if all they care about is how soon they hit 60. What cars do they have anyway?

Why don't you play nice, put on a big smile & invite these haters for a little ride and show um what they're hating on. It just might change their minds. Better than fighting and yelling.

On a side note, most of the top secret UAVs runs on the rotary engine. The Goldern Eye 100 is a prime example.

I get this crap all the time from teenagers. No torque, no hp blah blah blah. I just ignore them and go about my business. Or I just say straights are for kids who have no talent as drivers. I know not much of a comeback but it does get them thinking.

it just sounded like they had the maturity of high schoolers and you were concerned as a high schooler would be. all signs point to needing to grow up and not care what others think of you and your car.
