Obviously I ordered black/red interior:D
Hey, thanks for the child car seat find! I need to talk my wife into upgrading our 2 old car seats for your posted one ...

:D

The RX-8 will be my daily drive for work and weekends, but for any long vacation road trips, I think we might have to use my wife's Passat because of the larger trunk size.

:p

Yeah, tell me about it! Actually right now I pay $5000 a year, but the RX-8, supposedly, will increase it $500 every six months. Making it $6000 a year! Yes it's sick, yes I hate it! NJ and its cops blow! And people wonder why I compain about how much I make a year not being enough. When you throw a tenth of your salary at insurance every freakin' year it makes saving money a bit difficult. Yet somehow I still want to buy this car...someone talk me out of it lol.
How didn you get a quote on the RX-8 when the car is not out yet?

The insurance quote, at least my company's, is based more on the monetary value of the car and the model year than anything else about it. According to them the bulk of my insurance quote is due to comprehensive coverage, and that is determined primarily by the car's value. So I gave the agent the MSRP and they estimated it from there.

I live out side of Philly and I expect to pay around $1,500 To $2,000 per year and I think that is very high. The insurance companies are worst that the guy on the street that mugs you!

Agreed, the rates are even worse in Jersey. That and Jersey cops love to pull you over for nothing just to find a reason to give you a ticket. Don't even get me started...lol. Anyway, I pay so much because I have 10 freakin' points on my license. Funny how my driving since I moved to this state didn't change, only my rate of being pulled over did. Cops here = total **** heads. They like to treat me like I'm just some punk in a sports car, should have never bought an F-body, my license and wallet would have probably be a lot happier now.
