This car looks good. The ride is more comfortable than i expected. Handling is EXCELLENT. One time i went about 70 mph and avoided a large object on the highway and other 2 friends of mine who were sitting in the car talking to each other didn't even know it. It is THAT GOOD! Engine sound is sweet and special. Just listen to the engine sound is pleasure enough (no need for stereo). Visibility is good compared to most sports cars. This car is very easy to drive. I have driven many other sports cars and by far this one is the easiest to drive and handle. Shifting gears is easy and precise and never have to worry about searching gear or hard to get in like the 3rd gear of the S2000 or other hondas or Acuras. However, this car is not fast off-line but once you get it up to above 40 mph it starts going very fast all the way to above 100 mph. Fuel consumption is bad but that is what you expect when you buy a sports car. Warm up the engine good before you drive and don't turn it off when it's still cold. Other than that, enjoyThe 2009 RX-8 is a 4-door, 4-passenger sports car, available in 4 trims, ranging from the Sport to the R3

Good seat, good power, good toyy, good value, bad effeciency,all in a good car.It is not the best 0-60 time, nor the best cornering action, but if you want good and well balanced sport car in around 30K, this is the best package that you should get.
