its been approximately 6 months since i got rid of my 8 and i have to say i miss this car so much that im really thinking of getting another one. in fact i know im getting another one. despite the obvious disadvantages (SLOW). i feel this is still my favorite car and when hooked up it still looks amazing.

 

You can get a faster car easily, but it's hard to find a car that is as fun to drive for the same money. It's not just how it handles, it's how it feels. It's like a poor mans's Porsche in the turns, but not so much in a straight line.

 

I miss mine too, and it's been nearly 5 years since I had it........... damn. It's been that long?

Wow.

Oh, and your 8 looked positively bad ***. Mine was black too but I would have loved to have put a set of wheels on it like those ADR's

 

those adrs look so sexy

 

I sold mine almost 5 years ago too... and now I'm back shopping for an R3. I want a second car, and I'm just not willing to spend the massive amount of money it would take to better the 8's handling.

We all wish the 8 had a few more HP, but I've always been willing to trade maximum power for sublime handling...
