What about the rx3? I thought you guys were putting a new motor in it?

BTW, I really do want a 1st gen so keep an eye out for a roller. I am 50-50 on doing a rx3 or 1st gen.

but how many of the RX-8 owners even know RX-7's are rotary? or that the RX-8 are rotary?

Wjen the mazda dealership salesman was trying to sell me a rx-8, he asked if my RX-7 was rotary too.

Not all who own a RX8 are rotary-illiterate, especially ethusiats that are part of a car club. The club president and his wife own 5 rotary cars (2 RX8, RX7, RX2 and a 20b Cosmo) and his daughter and son-in-law own a RX7. Most of the people in the club desired a RX7 before they got their 8 (some are still looking for one). Now whether they are able to work on their rotary car themself is a different story, but even a lot of piston car ethusiasts don't have a clue about what's going on under their hood.

ya, so let's start a feud by saying that all rx-8 owners are wanna be rx-7 owners but have more $'s than sense and aren't smart enough to work on their cars. All us rx-7 owners and our badd *** cars can show up uninvited to the rx-8 get together with brass knuckles, chairs, and knives; and beat up all the dandified , pansy handed rx-8 owners.

Maybe have a riot too. Or two.

Not much going on here. I've talked to Phil about a few FDs that have popped up for sale here and there but I'm just taking my time. Plus I still have my 2 bikes and one really needs to go before I actually put the money down on a FD cause Angela is about ready to kill me.

What about you guys? Anybody got a new gigantic turbo or blown anything up recently?
