I don't expect too much from the 8. Nothing so far has impressed me. My mom is looking into buying a mazda6 and I talked to the manager about the new Rx-8. He said not too many people have actually shown interest by putting money down on them. They are supposed to get one in next month from what he said.

If that is true then big mistake for mazda. I would have sent out the best one I could find. But I though all the manuals were 250hp? Either way, I am still curious to see what happens

Don't get me wrong it don't think it's a bad car just that from everything i heard i thought the car would have been rather light to make better use of the power... i knew it handled well and that it was a 1/4 of a million dollar car...
A quarter of a MILLION dollars?? It aint a Ferrari.

I was just wondering, does anyone like the RX8's body style better than an FD RX7? Maybe someone should poll that...
