Lock & Load

SCO , nice rx8 in lightning yellow , next door neighbour saw the same car on the goldcoast , having a lightining yellow myself you could say i am biased .
I was all excited till i realized the car is AUTOMATIC imo a total waste .
iBELIEVE THAT MAZDA HAS DONE A DISSERVICE TO THE RX8 IN HAVING A 141KW AUTOMATIC especially not externally differentiating between auto and manual cars , the good thing is i wont have to use all my gears to leave it behind if i come accross it.

BEWARE

I am a new member here....obviously by my posts....1

But I am going to take off on the wrong foot here!!!!!

Lock and Load.....that is my Dads car and I am very proud that he finally bought a rotor....as I have owned a few..... 2 x RX3s and an Rx2....and currently own an R100

I am able to drive the RX8 whenever I want and have been cruising down the coast many times!....I also have no problem admitting its my Dads and don't drive around as if I'm some rich little ******** thinking my **** don't stink....but that is irrelevant to what you said...

anyway, I think its pretty harsh to comment how crap it is cos its AUTO, my Dad is 57 and my Mum is 53 and they couldn't give a stuff about manula, and they have had plent of Auto perfromance cars......2 WRXs and currently still own a Turbo 5 cyl Volvo C70 coupe! They are old, don't want to drive a manual and that is fair enuf......RX8's are slow anyway, and I love the fact that it is auto and love cruising in it....for the comfort, the ride and the looks!

A disservice is not having an Auto, they need to cater for all tastes, and its not a total waste dude!

Oh and you may not have to use all you gears to waste it!!.....but I will happily stay in 5th gear in my R100 and completly toast you by trainlengths....oh well!
However if you comments are just harmless fun, then I apologise for going off! :D



BTW....thanks SCO for posting the link to the pics, I thought I did a good job and thought they were awesome pics( regardless of transmission type!).....thanks again dude:D

No worries... you've got a good eye... walked past that spot a hundred times and never clicked that there could be some good shots taken there.
