2006 Evo. Put about $1600 into the new ride and got 350 all wheel hp. This thing does 13.4 1/4mi stock with 285hp. I should be in the high 11's low 12's. Prolly 12s cause i suck @ driving.
Not here to bash the 8. I must say that "The Little Things" thread hit it right on the money in regards to the 8 because the 8 has everything the evo 9 lacks. The interior on my new car blows. Not even a cruise control. I miss it. I liked the 8, but i just wanted cheaper power mods. Its ridiculous how huge and cheap the evo market is.
The thing that put me over the top is the fact that the re-sell value on the RX8 was dropping by huge amounts every time i looked on NADA/KBB. But im sure you dont want to hear that so i wont go there.
Well it was awesome being a part of the rotary world while it lasted. Peace out yalls!(no you cant have my stuff)

As a past evo owner myself, those cars are extremely fun too.
Yeah, the interior is lacking fo the most part but it gets the job done.
The car is not made for comofrt, it's goal is to go and turn as fast as it can.
Believe it or not, evo's drivetrain one of the most advanced systems.
If you want a car that just goes fast and turns fast with simple mods putting down
330-350hp at the wheels this just might be the car for you.
After having two different evos, I just wanted to try something new that is the
main reason why I bought the rx8.
I would have kept both if my finances allowed.
Bottom line, evo is a really fun car too.
