Almost there...

Re: 2009 RX8
 

looks kinda hot actually

Re: 2009 RX8
 

why is it they think they can produce a rotary without a turbo, jesus ---- get back to your roots you gook mother fuckers

Re: 2009 RX8
 

Looks better imo

Re: 2009 RX8
 

Still looks the same.

Re: 2009 RX8
 

The only differences I see are different shaped headlights, a bigger grill, fogs, and that fender thing. Plus the camera angle favors the newer one.

Re: 2009 RX8
 

Re: 2009 RX8
 

Just doesn't look like it takes a very aggressive stance.

Re: 2009 RX8
 

Looks the same....lame!

Send me some Prozac nog

Re: 2009 RX8
 

garbage

Re: 2009 RX8
 

Its still gay!!!

Re: 2009 RX8
 

gay that they dont offer a turbo model yet... headlights/fenders look cooler, but otherwise pretty much the same... not like i'd waste 30k on it though.

Re: 2009 RX8
 

mazda piece of ----..... how many transmissions went into my buddys stock 07 rx8-o yea it was three
no new car should have to have major work done in the first 5 years- rx8 had 3 trans in 6ish months

Re: 2009 RX8
 

guessing it was an auto trans? slushbox ftl :X

Re: 2009 RX8
 

it's not turbo cause ford doesn't like turbos
oh and it looks the same to me

Re: 2009 RX8
 

If it was given to me I'd rock it. Otherwise nothing I'd take a loan out for or look for specifically when buying a car. Minor face lift but nothing to call home about. Ditch the funky Saturn'ish 3rd door, slap a snail on it and make it fastback like the 7's.

Re: 2009 RX8
 

ford dosen't like turbo's?
are you gay do you know what a falcon xr6 is?

if you really want the additional torque without sacrificing hp why not do what ford and a shitload of people with s2000's and bolt on a supercharger?
but a turbo would make allot more sense because of it being a high revving rotory (the manual's engine is atleast yes the engine in the auto is not the same as in the manual versions)
a small turbo running arround 5-7psi wouuld spool arround 2200-2500rpm and give you the needed torque and they could stay under 300hp (have to keep the hp numbers low because of taxes and licenses required in other countrys) and it would be a beast i know that mazda in the early 90's sold a 626 with a really small turbo running like 4psi for throttle response and torque

but i feel the mazdaspeed rx8 atleast should have boost and be arround 270-300hp so it can compete with the gt mustang nissan 350z and sky/solstice turbo
and i think they could still sell the turbo version for under 35k if they wanted to

Re: 2009 RX8
 

go DIAF cornfuzed, i think they meant ford doesnt do anything CURRENTLY turbo'd... they had to turbo t-bird coupe too dumbass.
as for being boosted, it would be weaksauce if it came boosted at like 7psi, with MODERN turbo cars (wrx, STi, EVO, GT-R) they are all 12+psi, i'd expect no less from a boosted RX-8
stillnoturbo said it best:
once again, go ------- die in a god damned fire!

Re: 2009 RX8
 

yeah, cause what he said has a lot to do with being gay ::) ...your a dumb ----

Re: 2009 RX8
 

It's more that America hasn't liked turbo 4cyl versions of cars when there is a V8 version, such is the case for the 84 to 87 mustang. They tried to market something more fuel efficient with similar peak power and it failed.. why? Daily driving torque. If they put a V8 in an Evo or something and sold it here it would definitely outsell the 4cyl turbo version.

Btw cornfuzed you're a moron, in case no one's told you before. If I were Ford I wouldn't "like" turbos either when I have a perfectly viable V8 platform that could be made more fuel efficient (like what Chevy did) and would sell more units than a turbo 4.

I can understand why the RX8 is 2 door with the faggot half doors though... "4 doors" are more marketable than 2 doors. But the lack of turbo (or even a NA 3 rotor 20B) doesn't make a damn bit of sense.

Re: 2009 RX8
 

not so much a fan of the rx8... I think it looks the same but happier

Re: 2009 RX8
 

the new style is an improvment,

to be honest when that car first came out i was in love, but i dont like it so much now that im not 16 and think anything new is cool ;)

And yea they shoud throw a turbo on it, cause the rotary is poop with out the boost

Re: 2009 RX8
 

yeah, i used to think the Z33 was the ---- when i was in high school, i'd give a limb for one... now i drive a lighter car making about the same power, who'da thunk it?

Re: 2009 RX8
 

your friend doesn't know how to drive.
it would have made more sense if you said he went through 3 engines :1

Re: 2009 RX8
 

cornfuzed your are a ------- dumb ---- cock sucker.
i didn't say ford has never had a turbo car, i said they don't like turbos.
it was kind of a joke, but you are a ------- moron.
it doesn't make sense that they turbo a miata but not the rx-8

Re: 2009 RX8
 

Ford is working on a prototype turbo V8 Mustang for 2010 already. Who knows if it will come to fruition.

Re: 2009 RX8
 

too bad it still has a ---- motor. if they would put in the 2.3turbo motor it would be a sick car

Re: 2009 RX8
 

i'm working on a prototype crx, it's gonna have a a6 bottom end with a k20 head. oh and it's gonna be turbo also.
it should be done around 2012. ::)

Re: 2009 RX8
 

better but still not as sexy as an FD rx-7.

Re: 2009 RX8
 

1.actually the first trans was grinding in second around a month after buying it from the dealer .....had to take it out of state because no one in a maryland mazda dealership could fix it
2.got the car back not fixed
3. bitched at mazda more
4. trans was "rebuilt"
5. trans got even worse after they "rebuilt" it
6. eventually got a brand new trans not his O0 mazda "rebuilt ones" after a while of not having a properly working car that he was still paying for
yes i only speak of two transmissions there was a third one that was thrown in there amongst the bitching and bullshit


after the trans issues he later honda-teched a kit together aka bought a kit and had a shop put it on.....tuned on low boost by the shop ran great, retuned for more boost and blew the bitch up on the dyno

i will never by a new mazda period....you can say he was a shitty driver and this and that....end of story he bought an 08 STI no problems

Re: 2009 RX8
 

wow, it's got a different front bumper. Fuckface mazda needs to get a clue

Re: 2009 RX8
 

The difference? I posted facts. You didn't. You actually have anything fast? I mean really fast, not HMT fast.


Facts this time.

Re: 2009 RX8
 

depends on what's fast ---- face. what do you drive faggot

Re: 2009 RX8
 

durrr its not a corvette durrrr its garbage duuuuuuurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Re: 2009 RX8
 

right on the money, lol.

Re: 2009 RX8
 

i found what you drive.
a mustang. now i know you are a fag, unless you are the 1% that is not gay.
see to me fast depends on what you drive, you drive a "muscle car" so you have to be faster. i drive a car that probably wouldn't hit 20's in the quarter when it was made. oh and i drive mine everyday, to and from work.
it's fast for a econobox frontwheel drive honda

Re: 2009 RX8
 

Looks a ton better, but they need to work on getting a better powerplant behind that thing. I dont doubt the new Renesis, but i still think it lacks severly without the help of FI. If they did build a turbo version, it would be a best seller IMO. I know i'd look at one in a year or two...

Re: 2009 RX8
 

So no.

*edit*

Looks real comfy for that daily commute. Nice seat covers too! :1

Re: 2009 RX8
