If you can quickly tune in, Top Gear on the Discovery channel is about to show the RX8 review within the hour. Try to catch it. On now/Wednesday night

watching that now...currently talking about a guy that build a car in his kitchen...crazy

rollerbldes 09-14-2005 09:33 PM

=( I don't have discovery channel... Maybe I will go run over to my neighbors house right now. I gave up my extended programming for HBO/Starz... I'm a bad bad person.

tiga 09-14-2005 09:33 PM

Said they were going to review it at beginning of program. should be coming up.

Tamas 09-14-2005 09:34 PM

Did they play it already? Currently the American Chopper is showing.

RX8Sick 09-14-2005 09:35 PM

It's currently on Discovery channel

alcimedes 09-14-2005 09:35 PM

Isn't this just a rerun of the original review?

RX8Sick 09-14-2005 09:36 PM

Not any more... he returned it. Had a lot of electrical issues with the alarm going off all the time and stuff. A shame, really.

Tamas 09-14-2005 09:43 PM

Oh, so this is the same two-year old review then. I have that already :)
By the way, I wonder what Discovery Channel are you guys watching... Is it the East Coast schedule? Top Gear will only be at 10 PM on the West Coast, and it's 7:43 PM here. Still the American Chopper is on...

beachdog 09-14-2005 09:43 PM

Just caught it. Seen it a number of times before but it never gets old.

FX-RX8 09-14-2005 09:45 PM

Best car of the year!!!!
 
Yes it is a rerun of the program.......he liked the car except for no torque and poor fuel economy....but he loved the handling, performance, looks, practicality, etccc


GREAT!!!!!!

Apparently I missed this quote last time I saw it. "Feels like it's running on double cream"
LOL, yeah if only it did it may get better mpg. Still nice to hear though. :D

PaulieWalnuts 09-14-2005 09:51 PM

I'm having Deja Vu

Maybe that's where the missing hp went. Cholesterol clogging the fuel injectors.

legokcen 09-14-2005 10:01 PM

He's right, I do own one of the easiest cars to drive fast.

alnielsen 09-14-2005 10:04 PM

There I was. Sitting infront of my widescreen TV. 7.1 reciever cranked up. On comes the RX8 segment and it's cut. Half of the bloody episode is gone including the run on the test track. I'm verry dissappointed.

mirricleboy 09-14-2005 10:04 PM

hahaha, that is such a old show i saw that 2 years ago when i lived in the UK.
Still dont understand why they didnt race it around the clock, although i guess its not really in the lambo league lol.

alcimedes 09-14-2005 10:12 PM

They do race it around the track. Does the same as the 350z and M3 iirc. I have the full video footage. I'm guessing in the rerun they just didn't show all of it.
