Hate to tell you this but its safest to tow the RX8 on a flat bed type truck definetely not the way you have

Check for damage on your car , as you can see by your pic the front end is way to low to safely clear that crossing , flat bed truck is the only safe way . at your dealers advice to tow it that way .

Your first mistake was giving your keys to someone else.
Your second mistake was giving them to a female :P

For a second there I thought this was going to be a "How to tow an RX8" thread .... nice save Missy. Now it's a whole lot more fun ... "Missy Beats up on Boys" thread!
