Re: RX8 now...... but whats your car history?
I'm 28 and I've gone through a few cars:
First I began with these two:
1999 Mazda MX-5 1.6 in black
2002 Toyota Corolla T-Sport in silver
Then I had a Miata as project/track car and a couple of daily's:
1992 Mazda Miata 1.6 (US import) in white
2001 Daihatsu Cuore (what a beast) in red
2000 Opel Corsa B 1.2 in silver
2012 Seat Ibiza 1.2 TDi in silver
I wanted an RX-8 as follow-up of the Miata after 7 years, however came across this thing for a deal, which I regretted doing :
2004 Peugeot 206 RC in black
The 206 RC was exported to Estonia for a new and exciting life and then I got an RX-8:
2004 Mazda RX-8 231 in red
2008 Alfa Romeo MiTo 1.4 155 T-jet in black
While the RX-8 was in the garage last year I spent the time and money I had on a license + motorcycle instead of fixing the RX-8 :
2003 Honda Hornet CB 600 F
First I began with these two:
1999 Mazda MX-5 1.6 in black
2002 Toyota Corolla T-Sport in silver

1992 Mazda Miata 1.6 (US import) in white
2001 Daihatsu Cuore (what a beast) in red
2000 Opel Corsa B 1.2 in silver
2012 Seat Ibiza 1.2 TDi in silver
I wanted an RX-8 as follow-up of the Miata after 7 years, however came across this thing for a deal, which I regretted doing :
2004 Peugeot 206 RC in black
The 206 RC was exported to Estonia for a new and exciting life and then I got an RX-8:
2004 Mazda RX-8 231 in red
2008 Alfa Romeo MiTo 1.4 155 T-jet in black
While the RX-8 was in the garage last year I spent the time and money I had on a license + motorcycle instead of fixing the RX-8 :
2003 Honda Hornet CB 600 F

Re: RX8 now...... but whats your car history?
Not had quite as many cars as some one here
First car - 1991 Mini Cooper unfortunately managed to roll that
2 - 1999 Ford Puma 1.7 fun car and at 19 felt like a fast car.
3 - 1993 Ford Sierra Sapphire bought as a cheap run around ended up spending lots and doing lots with it even went as far as fitting a 2L Zetec engine.
4 - 1984 Rover SD1 Vitesse still have this owned for 12 years now as an ever on going project going through lots of different phases as keep getting distracted on other things.
5 - 2003 Nissan 350z Great car did 2500 mile euro road trip in it crossing the alps 3 times and never missed a beat.
6- 2004 Vauxhall Holden Monaro was a really good car and the 5.7L V8 was amazing again unfortunately crashed that in the rain and wrote it off still miss it to this day.
7 - 2011 Renault Clio estate After the Monaro I had to get sensible as just moved in with my then girlfriend now wife so bought my mums Clio to be fair its been a good car and has done a lot of miles now and still going, also bought her other old Clio for my wife when she passed her test to use as the family seem obsessed with older French cars.
8 - 2009 Mazda RX8 R3 I was getting serious withdrawal from having a cool car I could drive daily as well the Rover is not really that at the moment.
