Looking for opinions on RX8

She better be careful with that redlining. I've never driven an automatic RX but I'll bet you have to be cooking like hell to get it to the redline.

Hardly, first gear would get you just over 40 mph.

Oh, i figured that it was designed to upshift before it reached redline. Hell, if you can reach redline in first gear then maybe an automatic WOULD be fun to drive. I can say for sure that a non turbo 2nd gen automatic RX7 would not be very fun to drive.

No job = no money.

P.S. you guys know the new RX8 racing model redlines @10K RPM!!!! goes up to like 13K!!! wtf... nice upgrade

I believe that some of the 3 and 4 rotor race cars are redlining around 20K! WOW!
