Same here man, I was a nissan guy before my rx8. When I purchased this car, I literally had to have the difference between a rotary and piston engine explained to me by my friends (As I'm driving them!!).

This forum is a very good resource for knowledge, and entertainment from retarded street racers

Test drove A4, and loved it, but found out 04 Audi's suck ***
Test drove RX8, loved it and bought it

Red. Very nice. If I bought again, I'd buy red or black.

You need clear corners, especially on a red 8.

Make sure to search the forums before asking basic questions or Mugatu will have your head on a tray.

Also, make sure to redline your car at least once a day. A redline a day (with a rotary) keeps the doctor away.

I don't know if you mentioned it, but is that an auto or manual?

No offense, 6 speed mt is just so much more fun to drive.

None taken. I have a manual also, and agree.

There are automatic loyalists here, too, obviously, and it's all good.
