Sweet ride man, Mazdas are cool and the rx8 is a nice car. I would imagine its more fun to drive than the ls is

Nice car

Thanks! It is a very fun car to drive,especially after the drop,exhaust and intake. I had a chance to take it out to a road course out by me and it performed exceptionally well. The LS was a fun car to drive too,just a different kind of fun.You cant beat a 6 speed manual which would have made an LS almost perfect!thanks for looking

We should schedule a time to meet up at your place and all 3 of us can do your springs. We'd be done in 2 hours flat...maybe 2.5 with drinks.

Someone always goes negative.Was that quote cut a pasted? To answer your question yes and I'm a member of all of them. I have been an Lvc member a long time and like to keep in touch, Ls or not.It's my thread and there are few Ls members that are true car guys no matter what that enjoy seeing a nice car. Who am I hurting here?

On a positive note thanks Grell. You me and Hite really need to hang out this summer maybe one if the Kc trends cruise nights! I went quite a few times with the rx8 and it is awesome. How is the Ls these days?

I looked at an a4 b6 s4 but at the time I couldn't find one nice enough that had the expensive maintainence done on it. That said those car are monsters with that 4.2 v8! My a4 had all the required 100 k done so went with it!
