Great Car!
I simply love this car! You only get about 250 miles on a tank of gas. (14 gals.) That is the only draw back. I have driven it from Palm Springs to Oak Harbor, Wa. and back effortlessly. The car drives itself.
Light and Fast
Gas Mileage is not great

Great Ride but Unreliable
Did everything recommended and the engine only lasted 2 years with literally nothing I could do to stop it. Replacing the engine would have cost over $6,000. The car also had a leak unbeknownst to me that resulted in black mold growing under the seats. I don't know if that is something on the vehicle's end or a result of something the previous owner might have done. Fun to drive though.

Family rotory rocket!
Two weeks after I bought the car my wife found out we are having a baby! I'm glad I didn't get that Z4! The car has been great over the past 3 months. I have never had it in the shop and it eats corners. My friend races on the track and he was very impressed with the stock handling. Brakes are good and man have I needed them. The steering response and feel is amazing. I love how light and nimble it feels. And what can you say about the engine! It sounds great and has great pep at the high revs. When you are up around 6,500 rpm the thing moves! Not so great at low rpm though. I have to say that the only reason i didn't give it all 10s is because it is not an exotic and I want one!
RX-8
I love my car, I just got it 4 weeks ago after I got out of airborne, and it's awesome. The interior is really sport, the Bose sound system is awesome in it, its pretty quick for such a small motor, for the money you can't beat it.
