In Japan, and Europe, you can get a 5-speed 197bhp RX-8. The 6-speed one is referred to as hi-power.

lol, True... but I'd like to see who has the courage to try this trick on valets. I'd try it and then after only one mess up, I would be like, "ok, ok.. ha ha in your face! ..now get out of my car!"

They'll keep going for reverse, and lurch forward and stall it. You get in, be like, "Come on man, look, it's right here!" and slip it to the side and into reverse. Bet they'd feel really dumb

...and in the process possibly flood your engine, or grind the gears. Yup, you'd really be putting one over on that parking valet!
