even kids love it!

my two year old niece sat on my lap as I typed away on AIM when she saw my rx8 wallpaper and said "wow... nice car"

I also noticed everyone except the elderly admiring this car on the streets.

=)

I get chased daily by the kids in my housing community screaming "nice car" and they usually high five when I blip the throttle.

Yeah, I see that too...

My little niece and nephew love my car and always want to sit in the back. They shun other cars and complain if they can't come in my car.

Also, the young kids in my neighborhood really like my car and scream out to me: "Nice Car"

I've seen people at work, people on the street, and even this 80-year-old security guy giving my 8 a stare down.

My wife loves how people react to the car, and honestly I did not expect so much attention but I can't say I disagree with everyone...the RX8 is HOT and SEXY!!!

I had a 3rd grader give me the middle finger once. I wasn't driving fast or have my music on bust. I don't know what that was all about.

Haha, cool.

And you've pretty much described the biggest reason I wanted this car in the first place. I'm an attention *****. :o :D

Say ... your not kidding (no pun intended)!!!! Yeah, a LOT of kids love the 8. I even had this kid and his girlfriend walk in front of my car (in a parking lot) commenting on the looks and asked if he could buy it.

At a ski hill where I volunteer patrol, I came to my car at the end of the day. That's about an hour after the ski hill has closed, so most of the public has gone home. Two boys, around 10-12 years old, were sitting on a hill right beside my 8, and they'd obviously been admiring it.

I came up, put my skis on the roof rack and my gear inside, and they said "cool car!". I opened up the doors and let them look inside. They were impressed.

Lol last week I had some people taking pictures with my car. When they were done I pushed the panic button on the remote. :D They flipped, but they still stayed by the car.

I've said it once and i'll say it again, i've never ever gotten as many looks as I do in my RX. Dont know if they're good or bad, but it gets looks.

Around my home area there are two sides of kids. Those that like G35s and RX-8 and those that like Evos and STis. But everyone still stares! :D

It's funny you say everyone except the elderly because I had an older woman in a new Buick give me a thumbs up in town the other day.
