Shark?

Is it just me or does the front end of our beloved 8's resemble a hammerhead shark?

Lovely...I was fearing humiliation by saying anything if nobody else noticed.

Sooo...um.. Is the hammerhead a vicious shark? Ya know without a lazer on it's head of course.

Well then, back on topic...uhhh I got this off of wikipedia

"Hammerhead sharks are known to eat a large range of things, including fish, other sharks, squid, octopus, and crustaceans. Stingrays are a particular favorite. They are also known to eat their own young."

I would say that is pretty vicious, now just try to think of all of those aminals as cars and the hammerhead as the rx8 and all the other fish/cars have problems when the hammerhead rolls up/swims up.

I think mine looks like the oldschool cartoon batmobile? If the batmobile was shorter in length, and had no jet engine...

I wish I was talented enough to draw a batmobile with rx8 painted on the side...

My 8 is nicknamed "the batmobile." They do have that comic-book look, especially the BBs.
