Finally! A Mazda backed turbo RX8!

I have just found out that Mazda Australia has decided to revive flagging RX8 sales by putting out a limited run of turbo RX8s - basically the kind of thing Horsley has come up with for the Targa minus some of the race car bits.

Such a suspicious, cynical lot.

Not to mention killjoys. What's up Michael? Nobody talking to you in RX7land so you came to find some hairdressers?

Yes, it is the 1st of April...and this forum is becoming a ghost town...

Just having some fun guys.

Unfortunately, April Fools Day is probably the only time you'll see a thread like this.

We now return to normal transmission...
