So, I take it you guys weren't able to drive it?? Would love to know how it drives.

I'm gonna go by the dealer this afternoon and see if they have one.

i like the new rx8..a lot more than i thought i would. i've had 4 rx7s btw...
my two big complaints were the 18" wheels(too big imho...bumpier ride) and the gross pleatherite seats

but other than that, it looks like a fun car to drive.

Wow! Some people are actually thinking about giving up their car on the buyback program.

Here is a quote regarding the Letter Mazda is sending out to owners and their options after being " deceived".

Mazda RX8 (Owner)
"Dang, I look forward to this letter. Honestly, I don't know what I would do. I really love the car, but I did pay some markup on it. But now the markup feels even more sting seeing as I didnt get "all" my ponies. With the mileage rant, lack of power rant, the car is really losing it's shine. If you really think about it, the mileage for this sort of HP numbers, isn't enticing.."
