God this car sucks! (Sarcasm)

Im getting tired of hearing this.

Ive had my 8 for 2 weeks now, and I absolutely love it!

Sure its not that fast in a straight line (its speedy, just not fast) but I DIDNT BUY IT TO GO IN A STRAIGHT LINE!. Thing is a blast in the twisties, and nimble in town. Ride is great, interior is AWESOME! I love the leather, the heated seats, the indash DVD Nav. LOve the moonroof. The car is RIGID, unlike what some people sugges....you want to know what isnt rigid???? Drive my 89 GT MUstang Convertible when it was stock...thats an unridgid car, when you can see body panels flex over bumps.

Im just tired of hearing people that are pissed about the car they bought....didnt they test drive the damn thing before buying it?

I bought my car because it also doesnt look like everything on the road. It is UNMISTAKABLE on the road...when you look at it you know its an 8. Unlike that 350z i mean G35 coupe...wait i can barely tell the difference from every other car on the road.

Not too mention that, personally, i think the Mitsuburu WR-Lancer STI is ugly as sin...i dont want to drive a shoebox with a wing on it.

And to everyone who needs the speed bug fixed, turbo the damn thing. I mean if you can afford a 30k dollar car you can afford to save up fora turbo kit.

Better yet by a croth rocket...i get my speed fix from that first, mustang second..for sheer straight line fun.

My mustang has 533rwhp (No joke - supercharged 306ci motor built by Big Boy Racing in fremont, ca) but the RX8 is still more fun to drive.

I dunno im just getting tired of all the boo hoo i made a mistake buying this car cause its not as fast as another car...whooptie doo...........

Im done.

Oh, also, the RX-8 isn't fast enough in a straight line.

Haha, I kid, I kid.

Don't know about the automotive word, but "twisties" is very common in the motorcycle world.
