It sucks when a Camry backs into your ride.

It has 18" wheels. 16"s were standard on automatics, 18" standard on sticks. 18" was part of the "sport package" on the automatics, which also included sport suspension, bigger brakes (I think), HID, foglights and TC/DSC. The suspension, brakes and wheels were standard on the sticks and the sport package only included the HID, fotglights and TC/DSC. If that car has 18" wheels and no foglights/HID, it's a stick. If it has the lights, it could be either.

The spoiler had nothing to do with anything. A lot of the RX-8s that competed with me had them and they were all sticks.

Cousin to the Camry and very appropriate that only one brake light is working.
