Congrats and welcome! Use Google to search the FT86 forums for answers before posting a question. Most common issues have probably already been addressed many times over. The search feature in the FT86 forums is not very good.

Well I guess I'll be the first. Name is Kenji, from Miami. Happy with my RX-8 but always looking ahead to next car. Something like this is right up my alley. I just hope they make it light and tossable. I'll be checking in often and thanks for this site.

Welcome. The rx8 is a great car. Switching to the 86 you might be a little under whelmed by lower horse power but the torque is still there, and it is most deff tossible =). There is a dip in power mid range rpm that may feel crazy after a rotary engine. But hey the twins have insanely more sex appeal than the rx8 IMO. Ne ways have fun drive safe.

Hey everyone! I picked up my 2015 Series Blue a few months ago and finally got around to joining. Looks like an awesome forum, I can't wait to get involved and start contributing!

Edit* Apparently I don't know how to read, I'll post in the appropriate thread

Oh, ok Thx. I guess I'm a little confused. The post I quoted is #5734 posted 11-18-2014. This is my first forum experience, am I overlooking something?

lol I was wondering why he said "I just hope they make it light and tossable." When it already is known to be. (>.< )'

He was obviously just joking around when he did his intro because the post he made was just a cut and paste of the second post of the thread!

In fact, on further investigation, every post Jimmyjjohn has made is just a cut and paste from one at the very start of a long thread!
Guess my trolldar was out of whack for a bit there.
