well, i'm looking to get a new car in the next year maybe a year and a half...depending on my college situation.....i'm looking into the rx8 and the srt4, but all i have seen so far is negative comments about the rx8 from the owners...anyone have anything good to say about it?

Other then that...not worth the money. But I am super picky when it comes to cars, and I have never driven one. Sat in it, turned it on, and played with the buttons. Thats about it!

It's worth the money! Great car, handles like a champ. Could use a bit more power but I guess you can say that about any car. Flo, drive one before you comment.

Lets just say it feels nice to have a brand new car. I can even fit the back seat. I would get one if i had the money and use it as a daily driver.

I've been using mine as a daily driver for 7 weeks now and love the damn thing. Never owned anything bigger than a shitty 4 cylinder before though so it's not like I have huge knowledge of high performance cars.

I've driven the RX8 and own a third generation RX7.



My impression:



Styling and looks aside...



Besides not having nearly as much power (to be fair my RX7 puts out 315rwhp) the RX8 seems better in every other way. Great ride and handling, quiet, practical and still pretty quick.

How can you say it is not worth the money if you have never driven it??!?

Bought mine in September... AND LOVE IT! Still have the RX-7 too. Will probably sell it eventually. Just couldn't think of giving it to the dealer for nothing and letting him make a big profit after taking over $30k from me on the new sale....

I'll agree with this except the handling part. It does handle great but not as good as my car.
