My "El Rotino" has come in handy more than a few times. Wish I would have took pics of all my hauls.

I think the most i've ever hauled was my tool box, 4 wheels and a random asian guy named John who's also known and renesis se3p. lol

i've seen much better tho - When Ross_dawg moved from CA. to TX. he packed his entire apartment into his 8. That **** was impressive!

One of the Auto-x events I went to, I was at the far end of the air field during the last session working a corner, and when they called for everyone out there to help gather the cones and buckets and such together, well, I took it a step farther and started loading it all into my 8. Basically the entire 'backstretch' / taxiway, plus most of one of the runways. I think I ended up counting 118 'standard' road cones, plus 3 5-gallon buckets w/ 3ft flags, radios, water bottles, shade umbrellas (the like 4ft ones).

Got quite a few laughs and funny looks when I pulled up at the trailer and popped the doors and trunk.

that's great.

I moved from MD to CA entirely in my 8. I wish I had pics. The list included (but was not limited to) full wardrobe, flat screen, surround sound system, 2 guitars, guitar stand, Fender dual reverb amp (big amp), exercise equipment, computer, and many more. The car was so stuffed that there was literally a me-shaped crevace that I fin in with (including the arm to e-brake) & was packed so tight that I rolled my windows down on the highway for $hits & giggles and nothing fell out.

What you see is eight wheels and four tires all in the RX-8 at the same exact time. I drove 15 minutes to and from the tire shop as well! One set of wheels had great winter tires but wouldn't fit on my last RX-8 so I had to have them swapped over to the set of other wheels so I could make it around in the snow that year. I couldn't find anyone to help me take them there so I said screw it and did it myself. I don't see that happening in a Z or S2000.

I've moved stuff that really surprised me, but this was one I was pretty excited about!

Share any random things you've managed to fit into your 8!
NOW you can comfortably fit 5 people in there with the extra leather chair,
my 8 only fits 4, damn...

you know, it's a shame to see people abusing their cars like this... rent a truck damn it

i cant stop laughing just looking at that.

i just moved and have a dodge intrepid. it is a big car. however the doors are small. it was hard getting a lot of stuff in it. some just would not fit. that chair would not fit.

i love that this little car can do that. its so damn funny.. i cant even imagine getting the idea to even try that. your just crazy. your going to rotary hell for that one.

you kicked that chairs ***. it looks so wrong but yet so right. ahaha
