i want a mazda 3 though....OH and the specs on this one i believe are 2005 6 speed and that's all i know about it
i don't care for the car too much.
the way i understand it they handle like friggin go carts on rails and have plenty of power to go around
yeah... but so do a lot of other cars. they're not that powerful, i don't like the styling on them either. the s2000 is in the same class, looks a lot better, and is probably more reliable, not to mention that convertable's are fun stuff. an rx7 turbo II would run circles around that car on any given day in any given weather. its too heavy, and what kind of true sports car has a back seat and doors to go with it? it's just not my cup of tea
Lots of them.Originally Posted by b18hb
Anyway RX8's are balls slow. Get an FD.
yeah, beat the rx8 6speed with my rsx stock. HURT his feelings too lol

Never seen a stock rx8 run even close. More like low to mid 15s on the street.
you focker I beat you on the second run, it was whoever had the extra 170 pounds of matt P holding the camera that made the difference. plus it was the very first time I dragged the car, and my 8 still runs unlike your RSX, oh and my feelings werent hurt, didnt think i cruised this site did you
i hate that car, i tried to drive it, first off seat is not comfy after about 30 mins... blind spot gone HORRIBLE on the back pilar... just not my likings... get the 3, im biased
I wouldnt touch it... Nice pictures though... Someone put some effort into it.
looks stock to me.
That's what I was thinking ???
it is stock.....and krissy those are the most compfortable seats i have ever sat in....
looks like a bone stock RX8 to me

They are just as fast as any NA rotary is FC. I like them. i just wihsh the mazdaspeed 8 would have had more power..
And arent those seats recaro made like all mazda bucket seats....
But you could have a really nice/fast FC for the price tag of an rx8... And FC's are way hotter.
Or maybe im just saying that cause i have one

i dont know man i love all rx7's but id take the 8 over a 7 ...
my 3 stock seat is more comfy than that... and its still semi un comfy... just paying more for more stitching... and the car is lame... lets make the driver sit so low in it, when they get in a front end wreck it doesnt just crush thier lower legs, it crushes ribs down...
compare the 3 to the 8?? like comparing my protege to a FD
He asked what opinions are on it, and i gave them, and compared them to the other car he was looking at... :jerkit:
over

those are professional drivers cliff, obviously the RX-8 driver he "raced" cant drive and doesnt deserve a car.
so you're saying the rsx type s guy IS a professional driver? i am just showing car for car which is faster...he says he beat them and they are slow....i was just showing he beat the driver he did not beat the car
holy sheeit are you serious, first of all. NO ONE has done what R&T mag did with the 5.9 0-60 run with a stock rx8. any serious rx8 owner knows that number is crap. secondly. silver rsx failed to mention that we ran two runs. the first time I had the camera man with me and it was also the first time I had ever dragged the car (i just got it that weekend), he (beat) me, past the 1/4 mile mark around 100mph. The second run he had the extra weight and I led the entire drag until around 95mph at which we were about to top a hill(at night) and i thought i saw headlights coming, so i hit the brakes. don't be so quick to say dumb things, just thought I would tell my side. That was a year ago, i don't even think he's ride runs these days anyways.
ooh ok, and i didnt know what he was asking, and didnt know what u were doing...riiiiiiiiight
clif aint buyin no rx8 anyway.... whats the skid pad on the 8 compared ot he fd cliff?
oh and honestly just wondering who here has ever driven or ridden in an rx8 and test drives don't count....i want honest opinions not what you have read or what you heard or how you felt on a 2 minute test drive in traffic on a straight maybe slightly curvy road
I've driven a couple of RX8's. I like them. I would be willing to trade my FD for one. It's a well-balanced car. It was never meant to replace the FD.

nice ride.. And cliff, the 8 was not meant for rednecks , lol
lol i am not buyin one...i just want to see what people think of them...i had the chance to ride in one and i think they are awesome for what they are....and you can definately tell the 50/50 distribution and the revving to 9k rpm's is great
i like the 7s better
