Sold it last year , after 4 years ownership, 3 months after i bought the GS , was my baby, bought it when it was 6 weeks old and 900 miles on the clock , guy slid it into a 2ft ditch after breaking on a grass verge , reckon he was only doing 20mph , was a right bargain for me and an easy fix , bought it for Kaz finally coming home from China

But of course Andy , always looked the bees in black , just a right buggger to keep clean

Amazed me how well the rear doors worked. A far bit of room in the back.

Real drivers car Andy , engine loves to sing in the high rev range , and so easy to handle , as i have said many a time on here , it made me look a great driver so controlable and predictable and im a relative novice , but i could get the **** out on demand at least 3 or 4 ft each way and still feel confident of getting it all back inline in time when on the straight , Yeah loads of room for 2 adults in the back , bit like the massers coupes space wise , but i wouldn't want to be in the back for more than 2 hours at a time ,

The 09 RX8's are supposed to be much much faster with even better predictability , but alas the renesis engine drinks nearly as much oil as it does petrol

Read it somewhere...All to do with emissions. The RX is at the end of it's life and when it dies the engine will to.

Personally i always wondered why they went Rotary, loads of other twin cam engines could go in there , the car is so perfectly balanced , one of the only cars to have an exact 50/50 weight ratio

I 'm losing my touch Enzo...Will try better next time....I did look for the Wankel gag but thought it was a bit childish with all you Gentlemen drivers....
