...as I just ordered the RX-8 (with 6 speed, of course)! Ordered it pretty stripped. Only option is the polished rotor trim on the front and rear bumpers.

Congrats.

I've got 2 running rotors and about 5 no-op ones. The 6th one went on display.

i've got 4 rotors, all of which are working. it would be nice to have all four in the same car tho.

congrats on the rx-8, while not real fast (relatively speaking with today's mega horsepower sports cars), it is a very fun car to drive. AND since my friend got an rx-8, that's why i have my 84, so i like them for that too ;-)

The RX-8 is quick enough... heck, 0-60 in 5.7 seconds or so is pretty damn fast! Yeah, there are Vipers and 400 hp Vettes out there, but they are $45K or more.
