Anyone post the raw data of the comparison of the RX-8, G35 and Mustang Cobra from the April edition of Car and Driver.
The article is on the the C&D site, but not the data chart that is usually included in the articles.
Yes, I searched and found the scanned and posted article, but the "raw data" charts where missing.
Thanks In Advance!
