Anyone test driven a RX-8 before? If so, list your thoughts on it... I am so tempted to get the Mazdaspeed RX-8 whenever it comes out. Its so god damn sexy.
Mike's woman did, .......... she said it sucked (comparatively speaking). She said she is Vey happy she got the G35 coupe instead! (she originally only wanted the RX-8)

A friend of mine drove one and said it was GUTLESS.
I like the back door idea, but I don't like the general looks in person.
It's one of those cars that look betterin pictures than in person.
The Evo is the opposite of that for me. The Evo 8 looks better in person than it does in pics.
Weird.

I drove a gunmetal gray one. I was comparing this car with the 350z Track Model. I really want to drive an Evo8, but until they lower the price im out.
Handling wise, Id give the edge to the RX8, the side to side transitions are quicker in my opinion, the center of gravity feels really low in the 8, but in acceleration, the Z owns all over this car. I was not able to stomp on the 8, but it sucked at lower revs. It might make a really fun open track car, IF you keep the revs up.
But none of these cars compared to the M3, I drove though.....
, I thought id like to add that in.
