...and brought it home, in the box...in my car Laid the passenger seat down...slid the box in on its back into the back seat, and over the center console, laying long ways in the passenger seat. My wife climbed into the back seat, we shut the doors, and drove home.

I'd have to say, though...there's no way I could have done it in a manual. I had to hold the box up over the shifter the entire way home. Luckily it was only 10-15 minutes.

Still...I couldn't believe it fit!

 

a real man would have given her bus fare

 

I got one of those about a year ago. I didn't even try in my car. We brought it home in my sons 300zx.

 

I did it in a my rx8 and its a manual ;]

 

your gonna love the tv!!! i have the 56 inch bravia gen 8 and its a beast!!!

 

Due to space limitations where I was putting it, I had to go with 46" as well.
What model number did ya get? Mine is a KDL46NX700, bought it several months ago and am very happy with the purchase so far.
I have it connected to my wireless network in the house as well.

 

The things I can fit in this little car never ceases to amaze me.

 

Great tv , i got 2 46" Sony Bravia , 1 for the living room and 1 for the bedroom. The picture quality is great

 

I love all the sync technology. When I turn my ps3 on the tv auto switches to the right channel. Then when I turn the ps3 off it switchs back to the cable box. Same goes for the dvd player. Plus it auto corrects for video games, and theatre mode, brightness in the room etc. Now all you need is netflix instant and your set.

 

I have the KDL46V5100

 

I have a 52 that i managed to fit into my 8.... the box had to stay though haha

 

It's a Bravia - KDL 46EX400...not sure what generation it is, or any of that, really. I do know that it really has an amazing picture quality. Maybe not the "best" or the most "cutting edge"...but for the money, my eye certainly isn't complaining from my couch. Was watching Avatar on BluRay tonight and was just continually blown away.

 

time for you to buy a ps3

 

I thought this was a repost at first. No its just another member posting virtually the same thing another member posted a couple months ago. Great! And such an interesting read about how you too can abuse your 8 by cramming **** that you shouldn't be cramming into it. Buy a suv!

 

if he didn't damage it who cares...

 

I'm just getting tired of people reposting virtually the samething over and over. Sorry to rant! I'm still cranky it's Monday and its early.

 

i fit all four of my volks into my car and cracked my windshield because of it lmao. ive also fit an attic ladder in a box in it and several other huge items that went from the backseat all the way to the glove box lol...

 

We really shouldn't be encouraging more people to buy SUV's for the one day a year when they need to bring a TV home (that could have fit in their car anyway), because there are already way too many people using oversized gas guzzlers for city commuting 365 days/year just so they have it in case they need to move a desk or something.

I guess it's a bad argument (fuel consumption wise) if the alternative is an RX8 though

 

one, there's a whole thread for this...........shoulda taken a picture of it!!!

two, i don't think you're supposed to lay tv's down on the back/side.

three, congrats!

 

Well..thanks for the congrats, i guess. In response to "two"...you can lay LCD's down, but doing it with a plasma is just asking for a broken TV.

As for everyone else hatin', why? What's wrong with loving our cars for the versatile vehicles that they are? And, for what it's worth, I didn't get so much as a scuff on the door panel, center console, or the glove box...and I didn't even bother with pillows or blankets for padding. My point in posting any of this was that NO sports car should have any business doing so many of the things the rx8 does with nary a hiccup, much less one so small, with such sublime driver's feel.

I say, quit harping over people finding yet one more reason to love this incredible car.
