I agree. Searching for many things is not easy even for a long time member like me. I tried searching for the Power MOD. The search engine changes that to "power, mod" so of course I get every thread that mentions power or mod. I try searching RX8 wheels and it tells me that data is to short. It will not look up RX8. So, I can understand why newbies ask the same questions that have been answered a hundred times.

I also understand some frustrations by older members that have answered the same question dozens of times and no longer feel the desire to answer them again.

Another thing is that many of the new young owners are really not dedicated to the car like older long time owners. To them it is something that was fairly cheap, has respectable power and looks great. When they find out it is not a light to light car and never will be and coupled with the expense of maintaining--they become disenchanted and sell the cars or most often end up parting them out.

Just a few of my thoughts---sorry.
