You don't even know who I am!
 
But I'm posting anyway.

My 2005 Mazda RX-8 ended up like this in November thanks to a Silver Mazda 3.

So I bought a 2004 Mustang GT

And today I got a call from a dealer and found out I will be trading the Mustang in on This:

True. The RX-8 can't touch the Mustang in a straight line. Power on demand rules.

But.

The RX-8 is the better car.

Long story short. I didn't see her, she didn't see me. Turning at a blind intersection. Coast looked clear, then there she was. Side swiped the front and took everything with it. Her car was barely damaged. No one was put at fault. So while I didn't get a ticket, my insurance still had to cut me a $25,000 check so my rates did rise. Not too much though.

CarAndDriver 04-18-2007 10:20 PM

^ No wonder my rates rose! :eek:

That generation Mustang went way too long....its aged.

You should have gotten a Crossfire, it's the most funnerest car ever!

supergoat 04-18-2007 10:21 PM

Yea...not gay. :)

Agreed. It's a 2004 but feels SO dated. The interior just upset me after about a month.

I suppose there was only so much Ford could do for a decades old car, but I agree that the interior is pretty awful compared to the new one and the 8.

So what are the stats on your new 8?

dillsrotary 04-18-2007 10:33 PM

WHO ARE YOU?!?!?!?!!



actually i do remember you, you tested the obx exhaust.



congrats on the 8 too.

supergoat 04-18-2007 10:35 PM

thanks. :)

The stats are it's a 04 RX-8 with 28,000 miles. Leather, NAV, sunroof, 6 speed, HID lights...all that jazz. Basically everything available but the aero package and a spoiler.

I already have a spoiler on order as well as exhaust....OBX of course. :)

CarAndDriver 04-18-2007 10:54 PM

All TSB and recall work done?

dmp 04-18-2007 11:20 PM

go the hell away, noob.

Part of that first Blue car is now a part of MY car. It's the circle of Life..

TomAssBender 04-18-2007 11:35 PM

I hate seeing 8's in crashes, but am always amazed at the way the crumple! I feel so safe.

Xyntax 04-19-2007 01:12 AM

^ true that. I'm amazed how safe this car's crumple zones have been designed. The only crashes I've seen (in pictures) that have the cage compromised were the ones that went on fire.

Other than that, no matter how bad the accident, this car really shines even when crumpled. Speaking from experience here.

XDEEDUBBX 04-19-2007 01:15 AM

its not the most funnerest but the bestest!

I never saw the Mustang in person, so, for my own benefit, I'll assume it never existed. You just walked everywhere for 6 months.

CarAndDriver 04-19-2007 11:04 AM

Well I hope you are start posting me so we get to know you.
