The RX8 is a cool car, but I've heard that they either burn through oil or **** coolant everywhere. There's a reason that Mazda retroactively upped the warranty on the engines recently. If you need a back seat I'd get on a waiting list for a new Camaro! Try a BMW 1 series too, the 128 should feel a lot like a Limited Crossfire with a backseat!

 

I recently saw a 128 (Wednesday) and even though the moron had the top up it was one good looking car.

 

I'm not into the muscle cars. Camaro, Mustang, and Challenger are just way to big for me. I'm currently driving a Firebird and it's like driving a tank. We call it the beater sense it's paid for and good cruising convertable. LOL No real back seat though.

I don't have to have a back seat, but if one is going to be in the car that I purchase I want it to be usable.

Dan, that's the thing I like the most about the crossfire. The Family that you inherit when you buy one is awesome. I never hear of RX-8 cruises, and why would anyone care if you saw 15 of them going down the road together. Now the Crossfire is a different story, people point and kids smash their faces up against windows when you go buy.

 

Go to the RX8 web site and check on mileage.... If your going to get the 6-speed you will average 16.5 miles to the gallon. Enough said!

 

Nick,
You need to try a roadster. We still love ours and the Tail of the Dragon it is so neat to have top down and engine winding. If you would bring your dad sure like to see you all again.
