Take two redlining 0 to 90's and call me in the morning.

I think second-guessing is normal when one makes a significant purchase. I also have a 2005 sunlight silver GT, and for the longest time, I was not happy with color. I should have gotten red, blue, titanium gray, geen, and on and on. It took a while, but I really like the silver. Maybe not as sharp as the darker colors, but not nearly as much work as the black cars I had for the 15 years previous.

what is having you to have 2nd thoughts?

No matter what I choose I second guess.. If I got black, I should have gotten silver. If i got silver it should have been black.

I find that the one I have to ask the most people for their opinion on, is the one I should always stay away from. I find that when I ask others opinions, I am trying to rationalize a choice I don't want.

Take Black for instance. I have asked a bunch of people here and at work what they thought of a black rx8. I got a bunch of different answers and I kept asking until I got an answer that was either mostly negative or positive ( which is what I was hoping for)

So I am buying a Silver one. I have not asked one person what they though of silver.

I am also getting the Sport with the performance package for Manual transmission. ( as opposed to a GT)
Didn't really need to ask anyone their opinion on the two but I did need to clarify certain objective statistics such as headroom, equipment levels etc..

I am still FIRST guessing my purchase.

I will get back to you when I reach the SECOND guessing phase

Well whatever other car you have on your mind, try going out in it, whether it be a friends car or a rental, see how many heads you turn. Count them. Then get back in your 8 and see how many you turn. 60% of the time it works everytime.

I am second guessing myself now as well.

Why did I purchase our RX8 last March?


I should have bought it back in 2004 when they were introduced!

Why did I wait so long?!?

I didn't know!

Lol, actually, isn't that some place where a tank was housed, and they brought the 8 in and dropped it there? I don't know, I read somewhere about it, and I can't remember 100% what really happened.

On track, OH GOD SILVER RUUUNNNN!!
