Top 100 Reasons to keep Your RX-8

Ok guys, For a very long time I have debated whether or not to sell my 8, But whenever I see someone talk great about it on a thread, or get a compliment It makes me feel so great that I just want to go out and give it a hug. I just want to start a thread in which we could always go to and apreciate this mixed feelings of this beautiful car. I'm just looking for 100 reasons, but if there are more, Then Rock ON!!

Uh, have you even read this forum? It contains hundreds of gay posts on why people love their 8 and how they spoon feed it oil under the beautiful moonlight.

I had to leave my car at the dealership today.. they gave me a mazda 6 to drive.. It just felt very strange, the seat was too high, wasn't comfortable like my 8 at all.

You should try it.

#72 You can tell people you have 6 rotors and they be like "Huh". You reply with a hearty "Yep" and state that two are in the engine.

Well Madj, I think its alright! Just make sure you leave the #1 reason for last. Does anyone dare to write the #1 reason. I mean. Damn it better be a really really really good reason.

But hey, let this thread go on for at least a few more days. Anything less would be shamefull to the RX8

Why are you so self-conscious about your car? (shrug). I don't care if they think mine is an Edsel or a Nissan or even a Lada.

It's just a car.
