38 here, and lustiing for an 8. (currently "stuck" with an Audi A4 and a Miata...) Like many of our young friends here, I got my first new car at 24; it was a 1989 Taurus SHO. That car cost more than I made that year. Ahhh, the good old days...

But definitely, trade in the Audi and get an 8!! (keep the miata :)) |
Originally posted by Elara The current SHO is an auto 95, not quite as fun as the stick was, but it hasn't eaten any transmissions either (the 89 went through 2 before its accident). |

I turned 23 in October, and got my 8 in November. The first time I saw one I told my wife I was going to get one. I expected her to say I was crazy, instead, she wanted to go to the dealer with me that day! As soon as she drove it, she was sold on it too!

"go pick up an older rwd car with manual tranny and practice some tricks! like burnouts, spinouts, donuts, drifting, chirping, powersliding, etc.etc.etc... all the things I miss doing now that I have the 8..."
Is this to say that you can't do these things in the 8 ???? Hmm.. I know it doesn't have much torque but with a little reving and some nice clutch action, these things shouldn't be any prob. b.s. oops. p.s. if you want some real rotary action try driving a twinT 7 thats been upgraded a little. :) |
