X-men RX8

Well went to my local Rat Shacks today and to my supprise they had an old X-men RX8 to sell me for $2.50. Even tho I was just finishing up an RX8 project on the chrome RX8 I figured sure, this is a rarity nowerdays. When they gave it to me tho I was shocked. Now for those that are older school than me, this is old news but damn the controller on this Zip is TIGHT! I love the chrome controller!

Course I also picked up some other shit. Most notably a Dodge Viper SE...... yeah ok I have seen these in the box many a time, but FUCK this shell is uglier than even the 1st mustangs. Even if you wander into a radio shack one night piss ass drunk, under no circumstance should you buy this Zip. Hell, I got it at $5 and I still feel ripped off.

Any how, to recap:

RX8 Chrome controller, coooooool

Dodge Viper, Sucks more than getting gang raped in prison.

That RX8 is definitely a good score. I can't beleive you found one in the store this late in the game....was it new in the package?

I agree that the Viper shell sucks ass, but the overall performance should be good on that model.....not as good as my Shelby Stang...but good.

The Viper looks more like an S2000 than RS's version of the S2000, and neither one really looks exactly like a S2000. Did that make sense, or am I losin' ya?

I used to work for RS so they know me and hook me up good. Course this doesn't mean that your local RS employees can't "know" you. Just hang out one afternoon and talk em up. Trust me, it's boaring as hell there. Then you'll possibly be able to get a better deal. I mean it's the individual employee that makes the price. There is no way to track it or whatever.

As for the RX8, I scored that from a RS I have never been too. It was thier floor demo.
