2009 mazda rx-8 review

[turbo99jetta]

Alright so its about time and we finally got our first 2009 mazda rx-8. Nothing much changed, just the slightly (more ugly) body style, and then new interior trim pieces and supposedly it got regeared. Well after driving it, i honestly say that it really doesnt fill that different. there is less of that "body" shake that rx-8's suffer from at idle, and it doesnt seem like the car seems to kinda have differnet power at different revs but becides that basically the same car. I will say the gauges on the inside are cool, and the a/c works better, but other than that nothing to great to "rave" about.

Saw one at the monthly meet after I stopped by Burt to pick up the ashtray and I really didn't like the rear bumper. The front isn't so bad in person but the I prefer the old one. The new lights I don't like all around. Really didn't take a good look at the interior but the seats were nice there is a tilt button on the back of the front seats and the steering wheel is ugly. The HU is nicer than what the pics show. Side vents are pathetic. Next time I'm at Burt, which should be soon since my Spark plugs came today, I will have to take a good close look at it.

What Color and package?

I'll say this much...it still annoys me that the RX-8 only has a tilt steering wheel, and not one that's fully adjustable.
