If anyone is buying an RX8, this would be the last place to get on. You hear of so many engines that died and so many others who swear that you have to redline everyday and so many putting in expensive oil and so many using pre-mix and so many warnings that you will sell of your RX8 worrying that it may break down anyday. There is a middle aged housewife at my job who has 84K on her original emngine, who has never ever come close to redlining or doing all the other stuff so many experts on this forum advise because she has never heard of this forum and I know others who were so paranoid their engine would go to hell that they sold their car the first time the check engine light came or sold it before they got to 50K andfelt pleased that they found a sucker to buy their car.
That doesn't mean that smoking isn't harmful, greasy food is healthy, or exercise is bad.
It's the same concept.
