well the time has come to say goodbye to the GT-four shes been a good old girl came on one of the wolds wazz last year with her but alas its time for a change.


in her place a nice shinny new RX8 231 which i pick up on fri. i know these aint everyones cup of tea but taken a few for a test drive and loved them. well she wont stay standard for long already have plans and pricing up supercharger conversions for her. so any runs out then count me in as she will need to stretch her legs.

I know how you are feeling, had my new toy delivered today.

Your new car may not be everyone's cup of tea, but, it would be a boring world if we all liked the same thing.

Just get out there and enjoy it driving

Good choice. Quite liking these more and more... would certainly be on my test drive list when I buy a newer car.

Coupe but 4 door, revvy engine with lots of character, pretty cheap for what they are, rather unique and interesting looks.

Supercharging eh? Is that a centrifugal type that gets all boosty at higher rpm, or a pos.disp type that gives it lots of low-down torque?

Cool, I quite rate the RX8 and you will become an oversteer king!

Another WW being planned for a weekend soon-ish (depends when Al get's the Uberbus).
