Nice stuff, it must be awsome to get a brand new car that is your dream car. Any plans? Why the RX-8 as dream car? Just curious, since all I read are negatives, what's the positives?

FatalCloud 02-18-2009 08:49 AM

Mugen EvOlutioN 02-18-2009 08:56 AM

Balanced handling, super-smooth engine, easy to drive fast, practicality (4-door, rear seats that are usable, suspension is good for both handling and comfort), overall package, uniqueness of rotary engine, 9k redline, actually affordable brand new... I don't know, it just captures the imagination. I still like Jeremy Clarkson's review of it. Not many cars gets him this excited overall. :haha:

I've never been a huge fan of the RX-8 body style, but congrats on picking up your dream car at such a young age!

Looks good! I know how it feels to get the car you've always wanted. You'd never expect this day to come...I bet you aren't even that happy! You are probably like "WTF is this real?" - hahaa congrats bro :thumbsup:

kc1337 02-18-2009 11:51 AM

Open Road Mazda in Port Moody! Which sales person did you deal with? Btw you probably won't need to break in the car because the lot guys probably broke it in driving it to the Petro Can gas station a block down at redline and powershifting.

I know who is RX8CER through a friend, not too sure if he knows me or not.
I am one year older than RX8CER ;)

I used to like Rotary engines :) the only problem the 1.3L has is lack of Torque... I like torque more than Horsepower now :)

Ruus 02-18-2009 12:31 PM

congrats , im sure you'll love the car for a long time but do us all a favor and get rid of the Open Road License plate frame and get a nice one :) Best aftermarket mod for the money !

Raid3n 02-18-2009 02:49 PM

i told you that you'd get one, regardless of you thinking about other cars...

ShanghaiKid 02-18-2009 03:01 PM

sat in the car, nice and clean, sounds good too

hes been obsessing over this car ever since gr.10, but congrats on getting your dream car guy...

just wait for mine ;)

Happy early birthday to you, forgot to put that in last night.

I like BBS wheels on Mazdas for some reason... though JDM Volks or Works won't go wrong either. ;)

If you don't mind me asking, did you buy outright or finance?

I'm just starting a new P/T job and I'm not sure how many hours I'll be working, my average weekly pay etc., so I don't think a vehicle is quite fiscally responsible for me just yet. Where do you work (if you don't mind)? And if I rewarded myself now I'd probably slack off because of the car, so probably a bad idea for that. :p

Nvasion 02-18-2009 04:05 PM

i love the rx8 too its actually one of my dream cars also! another one was the celica which i just got not too long ago!

congrats one day ill get myself and rx8

I talked to Bobby. He was quite an easy guy to work with and pretty chill.

I wouldn't be surprised but I'm just gonna take it easy on it for now lol.
