One more question I have never been able to go past 123 mph any reasons , it seem to just pull back when I hit 123 and dip to 117 then goes again to 123 and repeats itself, any suggestions

should have got a manual then. ive hit 125 in my auto. the shifters respond just as fast if not faster than a manual. the automatic rx8s just have hella lag. which is why im getting an MT as soon as possible.

Are you kidding me? Autos are no where near as responsive. You have no clutch in an auto so you don't get anywhere near the manual feel. Get a manual if you buy this car, I honestly don't see why people buy automatic sports cars anyways. You bought the car for performance right? If you bought it for the looks then I'm going to go jump out a window then, there's plenty of other cars you can buy for looks.

Bummer, dude! I'd suggest leaving a little bit earlier.

Sport = Base + DSC, LSD, fog lights, HID headlights.
Touring = Sport + sunroof, bose sound system, HomeLink mirror.
GT = Touring + heated leather seats, power driver seat, heated side mirrors.
If you have an automatic transmission, the Sport upgrade also included the 18" wheels and bigger front rotors/brakes.
