ugh, the single WORST scene in that whole movie. I fast forward that part every time, just looks stupid. Since when did drifting turn into synchronized swimming???

Ehh, Saw the last post and I was not impressed... I like my Flea just the way she is. The side vents are HIDEOUS! Very crossfire looking, they must not visit the club to get feedback otherwise they would have never put anything remotely resembling a crossfire onto an RX8. I also dont like the center console, the ***** are ugly and it looks a bit bent.

BTW I'm trying to see if the eyes are in sync for the different smileys and I can't tell. If I look to long my eyes cross...

The final gear of the rear end is 4.77 not the tranny. With overdrive a tranny is a point something number such as a .85 ratio.

I'm just gonna buy a Mazdaspeed 6 and put the MS badge on the back of my RX-8. That'll make the ladies swoooooon...

...and the guys point and laugh.

I go to bed now. Night-night.
