I remember a old thread where people listed their other car. I'm looking for suggestions, I love my 8 and the way it drives, I want to keep it as long as possible, so I want to drive it less and keep it in the garage. Any suggestions on next car to get that is similar? I'm thinking S2K since there value holds pretty good and I can resale in a few years when hopefully a new RX is released.

 

2003 Miata

 

a 2001 Honda ST1100A

 

I'm trying to get a clean S2K for $7-9K or a Ducati Monster or Yamaha R6 for 3-4K and ride those until a new RX comes out.

 

A BMW z4

 

2012 Toyota Corolla
2014 Honda Oddessy

 

2011 BMW 335i, FBO, tune, coilovers, etc. etc.



1998 Integra GSR, 200k+ Old reliable.

 

2008 Mazda 3
2011 BMW 520d
2014 Toyota Aqua

The Mazda 3 is what ultimately made me buy the RX8

 

2012 Nissan frontier base model with the 4 cylinder motor. Good, simple, truck.

 

04 Lexus RX330 AWD with 200K miles.

 

Mine are listed on my signature

"Other car" as in car other than your RX-8. You don't even own an RX-8.

 

Honda Civic FD1 2011
Gets the job done.
It's bumper to bumper traffic everyday from 7AM-9PM in here so.. not really smart to drive the 8 as a DD, carbon build up game is strong.

 

Daily beater is an '06 Forester.

18g turbo,
Large intercooler,
Forged pistons and rods,
Cat, airpump and TGV deletes,
Headers, downpipe and Borla,
Cobb IA tune,

....and four speed automatic, so basically a dog around town and rarely in boost.

 

Rx8 sees mostly autox. dd/winter vehicle is an Xterra. Currently building a Lotus 7 replica to replace the 8 as a track rat...

 

DW's 2013 Fiat Abarth Cabrio, like this, different wheels



Various fun mods. Crazy torque, it'll blow off the front tires in 2nd. It is a hoot, and all of us fit.
The family bus is a Chevy express 3500 1-ton van 6.0 liters and 12 seats of fun.



And I cycle to work... put barely 10k on the 3 cars in total....

 

The 8 is the 'other' car. DD is a 16 Mazda 6.

Dutch owner......my 1990 Lotus Esprit Turbo SE......32.000 miles......




.....and my 1975 Honda Goldwing GL1000 K1......11.000 mls..... ("Bike of the Year 2016", election NGW.com-USA.....with 29% of the votes amongst 12x "Bike of the Month" nominees)

 

I heard the new Mazda 6 is pretty good. How does it stack up against the 8?

 

It's a wrong wheel drive gutless 4 banger, how do you think it stacks up?

 

The 2.5 liter isn't that bad.


That's about 7 seconds. It could keep up with an RX8. Unless the RX8 driver did a 6000rpm clutch drop, maybe even beat it!

 

Citroen C4 Grand Picasso great family car

 

13 VW Golf R w APR STG II+

 

99 Miata
