My dad got an RX-8 about a month and a half ago and just finished breaking it in. The only complaint so far is the notorious gas mileage...he says from 15-18 mpg with Premium Unleaded. :a:

OK now my review of the car:

- 4 speed auto
- Sport Package with 18 inchers, Traction Control...I dunno what else.

Anyways, I've only driven it 3 times now so I'll just give my limited input. Acceleration is very seemless, as in u step on the gas without feeling much punch and a few seconds later you look down at the digital speedo and see you're 20 mph over the speed limit. In manual mode, there's a slight delay in shifting after u hit the stick or the paddle shifter. But the fun runs out quickly because of only 4 speeds; so if you get one, definitely choose the 6 Speed. Handling is very tight, very little roll in. Backseat room is plentiful for an average 5'8" guy, very easy to slip in from the back doors compared to my coupe.

Yeah that's all I got, and the RX-8 is the best car I've ever driven h: so my opinion is very limited. Happy shopping.
