most every review of the rx8 talks about how fun it is to drive and how great it feels. yes its not that fast in a straight line, but that doesnt mean that its not really fun to drive. ive only ridden in one, and it was soo smooth even at 9000 rpm, quiet, solid feeling. for the people saying to get a turbo fc, maybe some people dont want a near 20 yr old car and are willing to spend the money. it sucks, but a lot of the parts for fcs are no longer available, or are soon going to be no longer available. also, chicks dig rx8s.
