i'm with liberty mutual, 26 y.o. 1000 collision ded, 1000 comp ded.
Oh and i have a budget to stick to.. 28k, so i either choose a Navi or leather package and i went with the Navi. The only way i'm getting leather with Navi is to spend 30k on it and i'll be over budget. The cloth seat is very nice though and doesn't freeze your butt in the morning.

The engine is very nice, don't know exact number for MPG since i haven't gone through a whole tank yet since last week but i'm half tank now and it's showing 100 mi. But when you wind it up to 9000Rpm you'll forget all about it.... you got to see the fuel needle dropping too :) j/k

congrats on the RX-8. I'm a fan of spoilers on that car, but otherwise it is just beautiful.

Nothing personal but it's just that i've had several domestic cars before and it burn deep holes in my pocket as far as maintenance & repair frequency is concerned. I'm leary about getting a domestic car for now. i hope you understand, maybe it's just my bad luck with domestic cars.

I don't think the RX-8 will be any better than a domestic, but that's just my thoughts. (my domestic car has cost me virtually 0 in almost 4 years)
