Nope, just getting the itch to have something fun to drive. The Blazer and Mazda 3 just aren't that much fun.
Been drooling over a couple of FD listing in autotrader, but just can't seem to find a good reason to empty my saving account on a weekend car that needs a little more care than my fully warrantied Mazda 3.
Erica and I would both love to own an FD, but not certain whether we would be able to share
This was the reason we ended up having two RX8s.

yeah, if Erica and I were ever to get an FD, we would keep it as close to stock as possible, especially with all the reading I have been doing on them recently. There are reliability upgrades that can be done, but anything performance oriented starts to create headaches, and I have no interest in dumping a lot of money into upgrades on a car....plus, a stock FD can bring in more money and buyers than a modified one...I know I am shying away from even considering a modified FD because you have then to question what was done, whether it was taken care of, and how reliable it will be as a weekend car.

honestly, you have to try it before deciding... I like most of the genre of games that you guys play, and I still say that R&C is a really fun game... R&C: Up Your Arsenal was awesome. i dunno how u can say it's "gay." but, if u think that mario bros. and mario kart etc. are all "gay," then i guess we just have different tastes in games.
The original title and R&C: Up Your Arsenal were the best. (I'm not feeling R&C:Size Matters as much. And, I haven't tried R&C: Deadlocked yet.)

problem is... it's very hard to find an FD in great condition that hasn't been tampered (modded) with. and, when you do find one, the owners know the value of the car and price them really high- ie $25K and up.
