It really shows how they manages to fit the same sized cockpit in a smaller car.

I'm really getting used to the small size of the RX-8. It makes the G35 look bloated and dated.

It illustrates a useful feature of the rear doors: Notice the length of the front doors on both cars. Try opening the G35 doors in a tight parking space next to other cars and see how easy it is to get out. Whereas the RX-8 doors are smaller and more useful!

i think the Z is only a little shorter in the wheelbase... they're based on the same chassis, with the same engine.

If you save it to your PC, make sure you save it as a .gif file. It's an animated gif. The bmp format doesn't support the animation....
