p.s.

Sorry if it seems I'm trying to hijack the thread,it is not my intecion at all.

Trust me, u need to stay on this forum longer to know what exactly is going on.

Im not sure about other forums, but on this one, you really really have to treat them like crap b4 these people will actually *search* for his next question's answer.

We have a new guy here, made 18 post since he join, and everytime he post is the question that has been answered like ten thousand times. We did told him to search, but did he listen ? Now no one wants to answer his questions anymore.

most likely the douche who sold it to him didnt say a word about it or didnt know because the dealerships do not train there sales personel good enough.

Truer words are seldom spoken....

When I was looking at the RX8's my local dealership had, one of them ended up having a missing hazard button. (It was just missing the little plastic cover piece) The sales person actually told me that it was a ipod connection....

No no no you got it all wrong guys.... i forgot to mention the best part.....IT WAS A WOMAN. She was Asian looking....i wanted to cry ...even my girlfriend knew she was dumb i just walked away in shame the second she said that.... So if you guys see her feel free to flame her a new one ...:spank:

Best part of the Mazda section was hands down the Furai....amazing in person...besides that they had a Shell of a Mazda Speed Rx8 , and the 09 Rx8 which was beautiful in person.... seats feel great and the inside gives a fresh feeling to all the rx8 owners of previous models

zoom44 03-25-2008 05:33 PM

still need to punch her in the crotch

raizen82 03-25-2008 05:42 PM

yeah, why put someone clueless as a spokesperson? organizers (whoever put her there) needs their share of smacking....

u serious ?

damn it, Tomorrow Im gonna wake up as early as I could, try to finish everything early, then Im gonna head over just to see how dumb a *spokeswoman* can be.

Soapflake 03-25-2008 09:14 PM

Mine's been drinking oil pretty heavily since my switch over to Royal Purple. I'm pretty sure its the first time the car has had synthetic in it (33k miles at time of change) and Its been about 1500 miles and I've used about 5/8, almost 3/4 of a quart. Before the oil change my oil level wouldn't really drop :p

awaiting todays result of the bimbo test at the center !

But alil side note , a majority of people that speak at the center are hired speakers solely for that even and arent really affiliated with the company i.e. the middle class car field such as Mazda , honda , nissan , subaru ...etc.. the higher class car field such as bmw, Mbenz , Lambo...etc. are 99% of the time affiliated with the company.

You should only touch your dipstick every second fill-up; anything more than that is just playing with it. :icon_tup:

CarAndDriver 03-27-2008 09:42 PM

Omg!

I dont even check my oil, I just top it off when changing oil, repeat the same step after 2 K. no problem

Learjet_Pilot 03-28-2008 11:36 AM

I just finished off my second bottle of oil after the first 2,100 miles of driving. So I'm figuring 1 qt every 1000 miles -- that's my gauge. Then again, others are getting 18 mpg.

SHOWOFF 03-28-2008 11:51 AM
