We can pretend that was true. See mine was made the day this guy Hideo quit and to **** off mazda he put 20B's in the RX8's and they were making like 600hp. No one caught it and I bought one. My FC was made the first time he quit back in '89 and it has like 1000hp. He had to go back to mazda because his wife was ******* his brother and he needed the cash to pay child support. **** I can't believe no one knew this.

My dad and I own a 2005 rx-8. it is a veryyyy nice car. To the hater's, SHUT THE **** UP, just because you cant afford a 32,xxx dollar car, doesnt mean you have to hate. Now that being said, im NOT saying its the fastest rotary built. But its a good car.

Check my sig. RX8's are slow.

The fact that you paid $32k just means you paid too much. lol.

I'm able to take them in my lightly modded CELICA.

Not really. If it was a GT-4, it would be impressive, but since those just plain didn't exist after the late 80's, it's kind pointless.

If the celica was RWD, then I'd probably own one instead of my Subaru. Or if I could have found a decent Supra in good condition.
