joy and pains of owning an RX-8
WOW ... !!!!
Joys:
I have finally taken the 8 out and let her loose. 125 or so miles per hour loose. Man, the it felt changing lanes, slowing down quickly and hitting curves and turns ... this car can really handle at high speeds. Although I've got to get that heel toe crap down.
Pains:
A rock hit my windshield. Now I have a crack forming in the center of it.
I didn't know it was damaged until I started washing it this past weekend. I was in tears. I traded a Spec V in when I got the 8 a month ago and it had a crack in the windshield. Now I've got a crack again.
Anyway, handling is awesome. I know a lot of people disagree with me, but even after test driving the Evo, I still like my 8. :D

Rotary Powered Decepticon
Joy: This car rules in almost every way
Pain: Every time I wash it ... it rains/snows or is dusty!! The pain! HEMI powered vehicles believe that they are race cars and rev their engines at me.

Joys: Driving it! Accelerating through a turn. The sound of the engine as I accelerate toward redline. The whiplash effect many people get when they turn to stare at the car as I drive by. The amazed look on peoples faces when I open the rear doors to place (insert random object here) on the back seat. The fact that I can fit quite a bit of stuff in the trunk.
Pains: Gas is getting expensive, and my 8 is thirsty
