Looking for opinions on RX8

[M Cook 10+ year member]

Yea, the one I test drove was nice too, only a mile from my house. Only had about 60,000 miles on it.
He wanted 8 grand though. No way in hell I'd pay that.

Its gone though, I bet an old lady or some stupid kid bought it and will have no appreciation for it. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

I'd actually prefer the 3rd gen. I test drove one and loved it. Didnt get to floor it to see what it was made of due to traffic though. Loved the growl of that v8 too. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
If I could drive stick Id take a 2nd gen.

However, I dooooo have 13 grand in my bank account. But I have all that in CD's. Not touching that at all.

I only haz 200 bucks to my name. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Hopefully it will depreciate as much as current taurus do. Then it will be a bargain lol.

I did. $1300 a year.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

My first car (current car) is the one in my sig.
Its a great first car. Very comfortable, like for reals. Out of all the cars Ive sat in for long periods of time, mine is still the most comfortable. Big trunk etc.

Not sure about the duratec, but the ones with the vulcan are known to last for a lonnnnnnnnng time. The engine itself is rocksolid, just the shit around it breaks.

Amen! I had a 2001 with 170,000 miles what was in perfect shape! ran like a charm and never had a problem. my accord is easier on gas and less blind spots but do not like it nearly as much driving wise and comfort. always feels like its going to break.

Yea, they really are great cheap cars.

I recently drove up to LA for a funeral in my moms suburu outback. It felt like my *** was going to explode. Seats sucked.

I could drive twice as far in my car and feel just fine.

They are great riding cars, but I prefer something a little more sporty. =) Wouldn't mind driving that 365HP v6 thought. The 2010 taurus' are more like the focus in style.

For what car? Are you not on your parents' policy? $2400 a year seems outrageous to me.

 

[sound_around]

do you even know anything about cars?somebody with your level of knowlage needs to stay away from rotory's....and probally car audio too.

Let me clear something up...

A rotary is NO more of a nightmare to work on than a piston engine as long as you are a rotary mechanic.

Having said that, you DONT want to learn to be a rotary mechanic on an RX8. If you really want to understand rotaries, get her a 1st or 2nd Generation RX7. If your not really into rotaries you should stay away from any RX...
