One "HOT" RX-8
 
1 Attachment(s)
This is the highest temperature I've seen registered. It was 98 degrees outside most of the day here. Needless to say, the emergency brake handle was like jello, voodoo shift knob branded my hand, and the A/C was straining to keep cool (not cold). I love the South!

Mine hit 91 today here in Nor Cal lol, sucks for you guys.

unpocoloco 06-15-2005 06:16 PM

ah, whatever. Whenever I'd visit phoenix it would always be a new record high. I had a summer camp there when I was younger, and it hit 124. Naturally, the air conditioning in the building broke during this time.
Now that was hot!

hah! lol mine said 115 yesterday.... ill get a pic tomorrow or something. the high today is 108 where im at.

Lol, amazing... I've not had the 8 out in anything warmer than about 90-92. How well does it handle the excess heat?

rx8wannahave 06-15-2005 07:52 PM

LOL...I was about to post the same thing, it was 101 when I got to the car.

redjetpack 06-15-2005 07:57 PM

the ebrake definitely gets weak feeling, but it handles it pretty well. nothing like having grippy tires all the time! it definitely likes the 70 degree range a lot better, but it still pulls as hard as i expect it to.

cLLcLe 06-15-2005 08:12 PM

Oh wow... And I thought 89 degrees was unbearably hot.... :D

dmorales 06-15-2005 09:51 PM

Do the A/C Mod in the DYI section.

It hit 76 here today. But it was a bit humid. Probably around 30%.

Nemesis8 06-15-2005 10:59 PM

At least we now know it has 3 digits.

At 6AM this morning mine was at 44 and then it moved all the way to 70 by 4PM. :)

I'll trade your 115 in AZ for our 100 here in TX any time you want!

Moostafa29 06-16-2005 09:20 AM

When I was working in Pleasanton, CA last summer, I got a reading up to 117.

khtm 06-16-2005 09:34 AM

Mine has shown 32 once. That was hardcore.

Actually, it sucks to be you. I lived in N. CA for a short while, and you guys are probably paying about $2.75 for premium right about now. That is the most expensive place to live.

$2.59 at most places. But I can get if for $2.46 at costco and safeway.

Only $0.89 here in Calgary. No big deal, though.

MR2_Spyder 06-16-2005 01:11 PM

The temp is about 72 here all year around. 320+ days of sunshine. Rarely rains.

San Diego is the best place in the US, suckers!
