u shoulda went with the white, woulda been perfect.

red, white, and blue

 

Right, because it makes sense to be patriotic with the colors you choose for your JAPANESE cars

 

okay then, just red and white

 

 

i would have jumped at the chance to get an FD with such low mileage...nice choice with the X though. The rx7 is a different beast altogether

 

Jumped at the chance to pay $32k for a 15 year old car...

I will get the FD. But a car that will hardly be touched makes more sense as a fourth car. It would make sense as a third, I guess, If it replaced the rx8... But my wife loves it. It is a fun car.


And Nongan, you're thick and chunky.

 

Service Engine Soon light is on already. F'ing Evo.

 

A lot of new evo x's are having the cel pop up, I wonder why?

 

Someone just asked the question: Rx-8 vs Evo X

RWD sports car vs FWD (sorta) Sedan.


The Rx-8 is more fun to drive in some ways, and in other ways the evo is more fun to drive. Overall, I would say I enjoy driving the Evo more... but that just might be because its new. If the Rx-8 had a turbo, I would choose it hands down. Its more of a traditional sports car. The Evo is a sedan, you sit upright. The Rx-8 gets alot more looks than the Evo. The interior of the Rx-8 is lightyears cooler than the Evo's.

I will say this: If you've driven the Evo, and you need that speed, the Rx-8 will feel slow.
The Rx-8's transmission is the smoothest thing you'll ever experience. The Evo is very notchy. Nothing wrong with it... It just is what it is.

The more I drive the Evo X, the more the transmission bugs me.

 

Car is looking good man!

 

I feel ya, i had a turbo II and test drove the rx8-those are very smooth-even though my mr2 turbo was faster, the rx7 was smoother better overall feel especially at 140+. but i am very interested in the evo, now that my wife is pregnant

 

CONGRATS!

 

I like the red. Nice choice, I hope to have a ballin garage 1 day too! Now give AMS a shout and wake that thing up!

 

I LOVE my EVO folks!!
The car is such a great daily driver. Do not F*ck with me!

I am always zipping to peoples homes to give bids and this car is perfect for doing business. I almost bought a '99 3000GT VR4 w/ 6k miles on it. Glad I didnt.

EVOLUTION!

 

does the transmission still bug you?
