Sorry but I think your FD looks very ugly - you should sell it to me VERY cheap and buy the RX-8 .

It should be illegal to sell a CYM for anything less than the 787B!! Such a rare and gorgeous color for FD's. I think that you should keep your CYM and buy an RX-8 as well. Just my .02 Laterz.

The rx8 is a fine car, but since you already own a FD I don't think you would gain much by switching.
+extra seats: do you really care????
+better gas mileage, more reliability, higher redline
+longer suspension arms which are supposed to give it more consistent handling at the limit
-less power, less TORQUE
-styling by the marketing department: it's a mazda so it has to smile!
-awkward rear windows, door cut lines, Pt cruiser fenders, s2000 take off tail and headlights: Does anybody really think it's timeless, original or beautiful?
-cheap looking interior: the fd interior is cheap but it's hard to tell until you touch anything.
-another rx7 is just around the corner. you've had your FD for 8 years why settle for an rx8 now when you can have 2 7s parked side by side in 2 years

the cym is awesome, and the blue FD at the bottom is real nice but i don't care for the wheels at all, id ebay them off and get something with a big polished lip....

I like the blue, I dont like the fact that the tire/rubber combo looks stock size and that the car sits up so high.

I never did like the look of the big exhaust. Some 99 spec tail lights would look nice too. Other than that, it's a nice, and very clean car. The rims work well on it. If you plan on going with an RX-8 though, it wouldn't hurt either. I personally would stay with the FD- with the above changes of course.
