I decided I wanted a warranty and new car and decided to just drive the gf's S2000 isntead of buying my own. Yes my RX-8 was a compromise/fall back vehicle and I've since righted that problem by selling it and getting into something I really wanted.

no u wouldn't, everyone knows that the red adds 15 horsepower so I'd be able to outrun you, besides one of your tires on your SILVER 8 would blow out in the high speed chase anyways! Haha

Its more of coming up with the money in an aquired time that is so difficult right now. If i wanted to wait another 3-4 months it would be rather cake but i'm forced to buy at end of the month.

and gas ? 400 miles a month is like 120$ tops.

this car takes some time but not too much $ to buy or maintain.

and he said "take this ****, Jesus is nagging me because I spent too much time on my car I totally forgot about the world"

behold, a sunlight SILVER rx8

I drove my husband NUTS test driving the z3, and then the 4, Eclipse spider, S2K anything that looked shiny and pretty..... I took him to the Mazda dealership last... . By then he was at his wits end with me, and was more than glad to sign the papers when I told him I really really wanted my 8. Actually he spotted her though, so he has to take credit for me getting the Copper Red.

I had a toyota solara. My mom cosigned that car for me and she ended up needing it off her credit so I had to refi or get a new car.. well interest rates on a refi are crazy so I went out and bought an 8. liked them and knew a little about them but wasnt really looking for one. came across this one at a good deal and here I am

Got tired of the 04 Cooper S. What a POS.

Told the wife I am buying her a new car when we got up that morning. Feb 06.

Found the 05 Winning blue sport model when I called the dealer @ 9 am. Asked the wife what she thought of a blue car.

Went to pick it up that night. 18 miles on the ODO. Got it on the free way and opened it up to 120 MPH. Best car I have owned in a long time.

Wife wants an Elise Chrome orange


What did I do to get my wife's 8 ?
Worked my Effin A$$ off for too damn long.

I bet you got up to 120 mph never revving over 4000 rpms during your break in period though......right?
