Someone has an 09...

Someone post a comment for him to join rx8club. I don't think he knows what he has since he went with an AT...

I saw one on a car carrier yesterday. Only the back and side. The front was facing forward and up offering no chance to view.

XlYesterdaYlX 06-19-2008 03:30 PM

I love how everyone on youtube is hating on him when they barely know the guy. Do i sense jealousy? Just pray he wont rice it out haha.

Jasonawojo 06-19-2008 03:32 PM

Yeah, first comment is already on about the AT, and then it goes on and on lol.

briann 06-19-2008 03:33 PM

haha yeah I saw the first comment.
uhoh! lol
lucky guy...
I hope he knows it's a rotary :uhh:

well I dont blame the comments on the auto, to me sports cars were meant to be manually shifted or at least a twin clutch, and even that I dislike.

Unless...you just want to look pretty and slush it around.

I actually prefer my "old" '07 to the '09. I especially prefer my interior- not a fan of the new steering wheel at all. The exterior changes are just that- changes- not outright visual improvements, at least to my eye.

About the only things I that interest me on the new one aren't visual. It's the new differential gearing (and I could live without that easily)- and the third oil port in the Rennie chambers. But even that isn't the god-send some people make it out to be.

Meh.

Bumble_Bee 06-19-2008 03:56 PM

I prefer the older models myself.... not too crazy about the new ones!

JRichter 06-19-2008 04:11 PM

Nothing like that new-car excitement. As far as the AUTO, he commented that it was a gift and he had no choice.

I got a kick out of this comment:


Present or not trade it in for a manual, but then again your probably just gonna rice it out like every over dipshit kid that gets one, and you probably have no clue how to drive a stick or else you would have got one cause hell its cheaper for the manuals. you tool. you got a shit gift. I'll stick with my little white FC forget the new wannabes that the RX8 truly is.
:lol2:

XlYesterdaYlX 06-19-2008 04:19 PM

That doesn't make no sense! To me anyways...haha

briann 06-19-2008 04:21 PM

That guy calling an rx8 a rx7 wannabe? what?

N rider89 06-19-2008 04:33 PM

Why do you not like dual clutch set ups? They seem ok to me provided they have a decent launch mode.

Same here.
Thats why im asking if you guys can. I tried to comment telling him to join rx8club so then we have two members with an 09 and so can learn about his car. But my comments wont post. :squint:

Bumble_Bee 06-19-2008 05:52 PM

I commented earlier without watching the vid... and now that I saw it..I realized I had already seen this 2 days ago...small www. Anywho... I was bored out of my mind and for the first time made a comment on youtube.. low and behold..it was this one...LOL

Renesis07 06-19-2008 07:10 PM

nice car, regardless of trans.

superglue 06-19-2008 07:31 PM

People still listen to that song?

At least he got a free car out of it.

PSUGreySreet 06-19-2008 07:53 PM

There's some sweet new features on the 09, but I'll tell you what... every time I walk out into my garage and look at my 04 BB, I am still sooooo in love with it!

Bumble_Bee 06-19-2008 08:12 PM

^That's exactly how I feel about my 04 LY!

mattrotary34 06-22-2008 02:17 AM

ChrisLeakfan4life 06-22-2008 02:23 AM

My local Mazda Dealership had a couple 09's on their lot

Dumi 06-22-2008 09:39 AM

Pretty sweet High School grad gift. I'm sure he will wreck it within 6 months.

Razz1 06-22-2008 10:42 AM

Yepper Skipper! The orginial design is the best.

Rotr8 06-22-2008 10:59 AM

uugggh and how riced out are those taillights yuck....and the headlights, I really don't get the new trend of automakers to bling out thier headlights but it looks like a cheap domestic GM sh*t....

kersh4w 06-22-2008 11:16 AM

i went to my dealership to buy ignition coils yesterday and while i was there i decided i check out the 09s. see if it was worth trading it in for the 3rd oil injector, lower final drive, and new transmission. its really not as bad as the pictures make it seem. exterior wise i still prefer the old design though. but its not that bad.

they were taking all the protective plastic off so i couldnt test drive it. :/ but im only really interested in the r3 anyway. i told the salesman to give me a call when the one they ordered comes in.
