I already know this car will be a hands on yet rewarding hobby as well as a vehicle. I keep getting steered away by other salesman I work with in new and used. I found a used 2008 at another dealership with 31,500 miles. It is Black on Black with the 6 speed transmission. The exterior and interior of the car is immaculate. I pulled up Carfax and Autocheck and they both came back clean with two owners. Why shouldn't I buy this car? Why shouldn't I buy an RX-8?

Btw I am new to the forum! Hello community!
the Rx8 makes a great track car, they run good lap times right off the showroom floor, and they seem to be more durable in track use than in street use.

the chassis/suspension is excellent, its quick, and very easy to drive fast, even if you drive it like its a forklift, it won't bite you.
