vettes are funny, only people who drive em are the grey haired guys you see at car shows with the hawaiian shirts and the khaki shorts with the skinny little white legs.



you know the kind who walk up to the car and proceed to tell their buddies erroniously all about how its rare or really expensive

So what is stopping Mazda from developing a fuel-efficient, and yet, sporty two seater? Hell, I would settle for just a mad fuel efficient rotary that I can turn off the radio and listen to the engine.



Oh, if you want an engine that will withstand 10K+ of abuse, you need to consider that you are paying for wear-and-tear at that point. Not milage. You break it, you buy it?

I'd like to see the RX7 just stay where it died. They will NOT be able to do it better; maybe more reliable, but not overall better. They're better off just trying a new concept car.



And yes - an LS1 FD sounds nice. And that car performs so nice with that torque...........

Dodge is releasing the SRT version of the Caliber.

Its a $22000 car with 300 horsepower turbo 4cyl, SRT brakes and suspension package.

Front wheel drive or not thats some package for $24k.



A loaded RX8 is like what? $35-$37k, and it does not even have 200hp.



I Mean **** the Mazdaspeed 3 is a better deal then a RX8

yeah it would be nice to just see the RX-7 just stay where it is...a legend that has died but still lives on...the bastard son of the automotive world that likes to bully all the other cars on the road just let them know its still around...lurkin' in that one guys garage down the street that you never see...but every1 in the neighborhood knows when he takes it for a spin...a true legend that you hardly ever see...only hear about
