And your asking this question to a bunch of RX8 enthusiasts. Many of whom are literally addicted to their car. What kind of answer are you expecting here? Well heres how I feel: Driving my 8 is the most fun I have with my cloths on my friend.

DONX8 mine is a weekend warrior and I must admit its not easy. I got a new engine around July and still have yet to put 1,000 miles on it. However I did do alot of modding this past Summer.

I love my car like no tomorrow. It gets tons of attention. I have this p/t job at a jewelery store and I park in front the store. I can see my car and ton's of people doing a 360 around it and admiring her.

She drives beautifully and I have no issues. I love my baby. Oh and going through a drive through I also get told...nice car and they can only see her blk/red interior.

Luvin the 8! but I'm putting the snows on very shortly and the fun factor drops quite alot when that happens .
Still tons of fun though, even with the skinny blizzacks on her.

Just did a Canyon last Saturday, got to show a Vette some flamage and embarrass a prelude who tried to hang. Love is still in the air.

Our forum should have "like" buttons so I can like every post in this thread.
