What I love about my 8 by Berni.

No particular order here just ramblin
It is Yellow
it is Sexy
Exterior Door handle are perfect (big pet peeve in past vehicles for me(flippy style yuck))
TPMS
Zoom Zoom rotary
balance
stance
locking gas cap
seats
steering wheel controls
the steering wheel feel (you know if you've driven one)
head lights
18 inch wheels
big brakes
spoiler
rotary accents package
appearance package
pedals
transmission
how it becomes and extension of myself and then make drive other cars feel uneasy
shift **** (feel)
locking compartments
light hood
style style style
Yellow (I know, just want to make sure you understand i like Yellow)
ease of entry and exit ...for all four occupants (but mostly for me
the "Jetson" sound of the engine at low RPMs
all the sounds from 1000 to 9500
the beep
oddly enough the digital speedo
oh yeah the "Time, CD/Station, Temp" dash read out
mirrors
Home link mirror
auto dim rearview
DSC (saved my butt in the snow once)
exhaust ( the way it is integrated in to the body and not just an after thought)
trunk not a hatch
radio antenna
handling
heated seats
storage
sun visors
tire potential with stock rims
air bags everywhere
The way I feel when i turn around in the parking lot, look back at this beautiful Yellow Mazda RX-8 and remind myself it is mine.

Please limit responses to a single feature, part, feeling etc (post as many single responses as you like of course).... We all have heard enough about all the potential Yuck factors,,flooding, MPG, rattles, AC not cold, Take this moment to rejoice in why you love your 8 or lust after owning one (as applicable)

Man, that's pretty much everything but the U-joints. What's your problem with the U joints?

I too love the yellow. I feel sad for all those people who bought cars that aren't yellow, but they probably feel the same about me not driving their color.

It's a beautiful world when you're drivin' an 8.
