Maybe Drew, but the sills were rusted through and the inner sills too, both sides. Front seal on the engine was leaking oil - could have been fixed but the compression test showed quite a difference between the two rotors, so fix the seal and rebuild in a year or two (so the money fixing the seal wo...

The RX-8 is gone ... I haven't
Sad day, the rust finally caught up with my car and it would have cost too much to fix (what with that and the front seal leaking) so it's gone.
