Also, that the RX8 just "skids" through turns? I don't get it.

So can you explain why certain people find things funny and others dont. Also, can you explain what causes someone to smile or laugh. I'd like to know. Atleast get something out of this. So I can be smarter.

Then, you say its barely imperceptable.
Around comes the backtracking to you feel.
Now, its an observation.
You've been proven wrong on all accounts, and you still can't get your bullshit to smell right.

Never backtracked. I already wrote a post about how I didn't backtrack. The skip is there definitely but some people may not be consciously aware of it. I already wrote about that I'm pretty detailed and perceptive, and I can point it out to a passenger like the salesperson who was in the car with me.

I think the best possible explanation that someone came up with is that the suspension is stiff and may not give much. I think this is a possible explanation, because it's not like the front suspension buckles. It's very solid. It might be the way energy is transferred to the point of contact with the street.

A) no way in hell you were going that fast on a test drive, or making the tights turns at speed needed to cause such an occurance as wheel lift.
B) Yeah its a stiff suspension...but not that stiff, not stock.
C) try again loser.
You fail: F

So basically this went from praising the rx-8 to bashing the 350z... 
Yes the RX-8 handles like its on rails but why bash the 350z?
Did you read the first post? Just wow.

At the same time, my motive was not to prop the RX8, and if you review the first several posts, you will see that.
