The frontpage of the highway section of the LA Times this morning featured the RX-8 with a nice long article and photographs.

Los Angeles Times - Highway Section Frontpage 5/26/04 (http://www.latimes.com/classified/automotive/highway1/la-hy-rx26may26,0,334890.story?coll=la-class-autos-highway1)

nice article. i get the feeling the writer is british, i could nearly hear his accent. i can't understand after all this time thought how a car writer could still think and print that the 8 is a successor or replacement for the 7. it has been said time ad nauseum that it wasn't meant to be.

I wonder how tall the writer is. I'm 6' and found the back seats to have enough room in all the right places. By comparing it to a 911, he's making it sound like it's kid and briefcase seating only, which is not accurate IMO.
