I am looking to buy a sports car. I was thinking the 350Z, STi, S2k, G35 but I may go with the RX-8 because it's less expensive and a very balanced car. Application will be 50% road summer use, 50% track/performance use.

My only concern is the reliability of the Renesis engine. How many kms do you think we can get out of it?

I read the C&D comparo, the car is a bit slow (vs. G35/350Z) but it's a lighter/more interesting design than the G35 and has 2 more seats than the 350Z. If I won't buy the RX I may go with the STi for the performance (but I would have to pay 8-13k more).

Anyway, can we see the car in Toronto?
Does anybody know anything about a dealership that may have a demo?

I checked the specs and it seems that the CS model doesn;t have DSC which I find a weird choice and forces me to put the 4k extra for the GT.
