Not Brian Posted March 5, 2013 Report Share Posted March 5, 2013 Clay, having driven both, the CTS-V isn't just in a different league than an RX-8, it's like comparing backyard kickball to being Kenny Fucking Powers. Any substantial price differences are worth it. The power is there, sure, but it's refined power.. not some janky rotary struggling to pass that semi going 55mph.

He knows what he should do, but is scared. Nothing any of us say, will have any influence on his decision. Your holier than thou stance in this thread is entertaining, however.

Draco-REX Posted March 5, 2013 Report Share Posted March 5, 2013 All anyone needs to do is look at Clay's trucks and it becomes obvious that his mind does not work along usual CR lines of thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crossle Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 I would not snag an RX8 as a daily now. The V is nice if you can afford it. You have been down the Passat road once very thoroughly, not a lot has changed in the motor department. New motors, sure, but they already have their costly pattern failures. Although in well kept condition they run very well, no doubt about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cordell Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 After working at a Mazda dealer for going on a couple months now the only RX8s we see need engines, and there has been 3-4 get new engines in that time. Enough for me to never want one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pontiacfreak142 Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 Ctsv all the way. Like some others have said, gas mileage wise, i think 20 out of the caddy is under rated and could prolly get 23 or so. The last rx8 i looked at was at the columbus auto show last year and the window sticker said 13 city 18 highway... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forrest Gump 9 Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 Do yourself a favor, do not get a CTS-V. Because it likes a girlfriend that got away. If you get it you'll find all the flaws and disappointments. Keep the fantasy alive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crummer Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 If you are calculating the true cost of ownership, you might want to consider depreciation as well. Not.many cars appreciate in value but some of them maintain more value over time than others. I suspect the V or the VW would be better than the 8.

kirks5oh Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 If you're breaking it down to mileage expected and pricing over 100k miles, the ctsv is not the car for you. I averaged less than 18mpg on my gto, but drove it like a boss. You can't break a pleasure car down into cost per mile, or you'll end up driving it like a pansy. Also, didn't see if you mentioned insurance costs. And the v needs premium gas. If you're talking rx8 you should probably add in the cost of a second motor.

Geeesammy Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 RX8, reliability. Those two words in the same sentence could very well rip apart the space-time continuum of our galaxy as we know it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RS69 Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 Don't know about Clay, but we will be buying a new Passat diesel this year when Volkswagen has their yearly sale when they offer zero percent interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
