Hey IkeWRX are you in Milwakee WI or Milwaukee Oregon? Just curious...:) bet ya didn't know there was one in Oregon huh? (if your in WI) :)

Oh yea I dont have any comment for which car is 2nd to the Rx8. I have no desire for any other car!! (that I can afford in my life time anyway haha)

Well plenty... I like the 147 GTA

I don't mind an EVO 8 for the track though

After further thought, the Enzo is a close second with the Zonda coming in 3rd. Where's my damn rolls eyes smiley??? :p Yes it's Milwaukee WI, no I didn't know there was a Milwaukee
Or-a-gun :D

i hear that ike! ive ben witing for that back since the day they took it away. i hear thru the grapevine that it might be back soon though.

now as far as second to the rx-8? my second choice would have been a mazda6s hatch if it was out then or (shut your eyes ike!) a wrx.

what the hell...

I would have bought a S2000 if the Rx-8 was not available and I had to buy a new car.

well i really wanted 4 seats. and the awd drive would have been helpful going up to the mountains for skiing or even just for hiking in the dryer season.

G35 would be my vote.

Had the 8 not been out there, I think I actually would have ended up with a 4runner.

But for sports cars, I would say the S2000 is 2nd, Z4 is 3rd. (This rating is based just upon how I like the cars, not a strict "performance" rating or anything)

I didn't realize you wanted 4 seats. In that case I would have got 2 S2000's.

The Porsche 959 is a close second.
Seriously, if the question is what was your second choice, mine was the G35.

I almost went with the G35. Then I saw an RX-8. So happy.

I seriously considered the G35 coupe as well. But it was too expensive, zero head room for rear passengers, and the coupe felt like a sedan.

Plus the dealership didn't allow anyone to demo the 6spd model. I wasn't about to buy a car they were to proud to let me test drive.

In the end, the sh** eating grin on my face during my daily comute lets me know I made the right decision.

I gotta say the Infiniti G35. If the 8 wasn't around, I'd go with that ride.
