"No, I think they fixed it in the development studio. Before they launched the car"

I had a guy at the drive thru say he liked the car, but would never get one because the rotary had to be rebuilt every 30K miles.

As I was parking my car some Saturn drivers were parking next to me, "Who makes that?"
"Mazda," I replied.
"Do the back doors open?"
"Yes."
"Nice, but Saturn was the first!," replied the Saturn drivers proudly.
"RX-8 is the fastest." I replied even more proudly.

And, if I'm not mistaken, the Saturn's only had one suicide door (on the driver's side).

I think you'd have to go back to the Auburns, Cords ro the Dues' and you'd find a free style door before saturn.

Next time tell them "I dunno. Hop in the back and let's find out!"

If he declines, then admit that the doors are rigged to a NOS tank just like in 2 Fast 2 Furious and blow out on driver command. Something tells me that this would be totally convincing to the average drive thru employee.

"I hear that it floods a lot. Just how deep can the water be?"
Answer: " Anything over 1 inch is a problem."

I had a guy at an Arby's ask if my RX8 was a Lexus.

I am still chuckling about it.

You could replace the Mazda badges with Ferrari badges and people would believe it

The comment:

"What do you have in their, a V6 or V8?"

My response:

"No, it's a rotary engine...no pistons, 2 rotors"

Enters the not paying attention comment:

"So, how much HP does that V6 make"

LOL...I normally just ignore their response, and say again It's a rotary and it makes 238HP.

I was at a computer store buying parts and the guy helps me carry them to the car, he then says wow what a nice car. Then he goes on to ask if it's a v6 I tell him it's a rotary, he then asks how many cylinders does it have, I tell it has none and you should have seen the utter state of confusion on his face.

I then told him it has 2 rotors and he still has the look and just walks away still in the same state of confusion, funny stuff.

Noone grasps the rotary comment...If they don't get that you can make up any horsepower numbers that you want.

I was in a Mc Donalds drive through coming up and the guy asked,

"Is that a Lexus?"

I said, "No, it's an RX8."

Then he says, "Wow, looks live a Viper."
