Traded '03 Cobra for RX-8. Am I crazy?
#26
Be prepared for total strangers to check your car out and ask questions everywhere you go. Is that a Viper? How much $60,000? Is that a V6? How fast will it go?
Babes will stare, car lovers will give you the thumbs up, and neighborhood kids will point, jump & shout.
You just don't get much of that in a mustang no matter how nice it is...I almost signed the dotted line on a 03 Mach I. Glad I got da 8 instead. You're not crazy, it's just 8-Fever and we've all got it bad.

Funny thing was, I actually painted the SVT Contour I bought. I was a painter at the Kansas City Assembly Plant when we were building Contours here.

Not nuts.
I looked at the '04 'stang before test driving the 8. When I test drove it the gas gauge was sitting on the empty line. Salesman said just take it around the block. Didn't get it over 30mph, he didn't get a sale.
Funny though I had a kid at Taco Bell lean out the window and say, "Damn is that the new Mustang!"
I had to supress my laughter till he gave me the food I ordered.
