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.

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. ::)

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