I hear ya.  That's why I'm strongly considering the G35 or G37 Coupe for my next car rather then a Mustang or GTO.  I just don't think I could do with the V8 rumble. 
I thought a V8 was a plus...???

I want to get all my irresponsible car moves out of my system before the kids start coming

I never found the V8 rumble in a stock GT too bad.

I find it hard to believe that somebody can't stand a V8 rumble, especially a Mustang-troll named Hemi.

I can understand not wanting to hear or feel something harsh all the time as your only car. When you get older it happens.
But I worry more about back and leg comfort then ears. But each person is different.

lol, I think Hemi meant "I just don't think I could do without the V8 rumble"

Well a Mazda dealer about 150 miles away gave me a price of $25,743 for the 2009 Aurora Blue R3 they have in the show room with 8 miles on it. They had a deal running until Dec 1 on it but will see if they can extend it.
I'm sure they will because it's not like RX-8's sell well. If I can get it for this price then I'm going the first day I can get off of work this week.


Sometimes it pays to like unpopular cars. That is until I go to the gas pump with this thing.  :tounge:

Daaaaaaamn, that's a good deal. :ohyeah:

Well men I'm off to go look at her. If she's clean and without dings or mess ups then I'll have pictures tomorrow. It'll be dark by the time I get home today.
Probably hit a fucking deer on the way back.

Is that with or without the manufacturers rebate?  Would you be getting a R3 Rx8 for 20k? :rockon:

That's definately with the rebate.  They sticker well over 30K new.

Yeah, but you can probably talk it down to that much and then tack on the rebates.  I was able to get a CX9 down 10k off the sticker without a rebate so I don't think an Rx8 is that hard.

Got it. I'm worn out from driving up there and then putting my name on 10 million pieces of paper. Then the longer drive home on back roads so I wouldn't be going one speed on the interstate. Talk about fucking deer all over the place and it was raining like a mother fucker for half of it. Got my new car all dirty. I'll have pictures up after I get home from work.

My brother is pissed off. I got an R3 for less than his MX-5 and my payments are $100 less a month too. Sometimes I win.

Well I was going to take a picture of it in the garage with the MX-5 but my digital camera has blown up. I've got a picture but it's a big red and blue blob. And now it won't even turn on anymore without a system error.
I'll have to use my aunts camera for my post tomorrow.

Apparently my girlfriend posted this picture of me with it at the dealer on facebook. I've got people asking what I've got and I didn't tell anyone yet.
