People, it's soo simple.

Q: Is the RX8 really slow?
A: Yes and No, it depends what you compare it too, and in what way. There is always something faster, and there is always plenty slower. But What does it matter if YOU like what YOU have?

Lighten the hell up, and stop acting like I've offended your mother every time I say something that doesn't present the RX-8 in the best light.
You happen to be in every performance rx8 thread. And continuous humor gets old, just a tip.

I don't get it

Why is the 8 compared to cars that come stock with FI, cars that cost 10,20,50k more? **** I bet I could modify an 87 rabbit and beat the pants off of STI's, Ferrari's etc. for a grand total of 15k
