You know you drive an rx8, when your wife asks if that car beside you is faster than yours and you say yes lol then explain if this road had corners you'd win

 

You know you drive an rx8 because you really do...ha ha ha!............................................... .................ok, it's not that funny.

 

You know you drive an rx8 when everyone slows down for corners and you just speed up

 

... when, even while your engine is being replaced at 40k miles, you take a new R3 for a test drive and decide you would buy the same car all over again.

 

.... when you drive anywhere in town and you see heads turn and follow you. As you glance in the rearview mirror they watch until long after you've gone by....esp. the kids.

 

... when your car is so rare now, that other RX-8 drivers wave as they go by...

 

You know you drive an Rx8 When you go to the track and people inform you that your car is slow and has no torque.... You just smile and beat them by several seconds.

 

when you enter a walmart parking lot take the first corner at 50mph, and just smile and say "i love turning" then GF looks at me and says whats wrong with you.

but plus side i got me a car GF and she completely understands and wants me to go faster and hit corners harder =)

god i love my 8 r3, and love this thread i can agree with almost all and i only have 800 miles on her =)

 

When you park your car and as your walking away you can't stop looking back at it

 

...when you watch people's face to see the reaction, as you tell them there are no cylenders on this car...

 

When you're walking away from you 8, and you can't stop looking back at it, and remembering how it has no cylinders.

 

When you look at the stack of broken engines on the shelf in your garage, just by the side of the Mountain of Dead Coils and the Drawer of Worn Plugs.

 

---you'll make up any excuse to go to the store and,

---that 10 minute trip to the store turns into an hour-long getaway and,

---your wife thinks you're cheating on her because it took an hour to go to the store

Lastly,

---you drive around with the radio off just so you can hear the sound of the engine

I'm guilty of all of these ...

 

when people think your fing crazy for pouring oil in your gas tank

when your gf tells people that you love your car more than her

when your neighbors know when your close to home when you are over a mile away

 

When you're flooring it on the highway and an Accord passes you by?

 

I think you're in the wrong thread... You must be looking for the "You know your RX-8 has a problem when..." thread.

 

When you burn gallons to the mile and not miles to the gallon.

 

When a stock '87 TII whoops you.


Like mine.

 

When you take on-ramps and curves on mountains that have warning signs at half the speed your tach reads the moment you take them =D

 

When people ask why your new car burns oil then you proceed to say "it's supposed to."

When you have to go around the block just to move your car from the street to the driveway.

When 9k rpm's is a daily occurence.

 

when you see this commercial and at the end and you say rx8..

Hahaha I went through this exact same thought process!

 

You know you drive an Rx8 when the car tells you to change gear with a little beep, and if you don't hear it your short shifting and not keeping the engine nice and clean.

 

You know you drive an Rx8 when your boss asks you why it took an hour to get everyone coffee from the dunkin doughnuts across the street

...when your co-worker tells you "your car sounds like a jet taking off"
