Spotted this in CAR alongside a comparison of the Crossfire and the Nissan 350z

Enjoy!

Cheers

Oh how I mourn the demise of my 3.5L V6! But it's tempered by the thought of the Renesis!!!

Oilman,

Thanks for posting, any chance of page 158 as well?

The article above mentions the RX-8 on this page as well.

Cheers
Mark

Another positive article in which the 8 beats both the Z and TT.

Also nice to see a tit grey in the photo not the normal red.

Thanks Oilman.

MarkW,

Didn't pick up page 158 last night but will post tonight.

Have read it but not too impressed, TORQUE again, they like it as it's incredibly good value but dissapointed with power and torque.

They state that the low-power is more toquey and useable!

Cheers

Having just bought this magazine and looked at page 158.

Is it my imagination but they seem to have mirrored two of the pictures, either that or the German have started making number plates that read backwards.

I certainly hope so. Otherwise they have managed to move the handbrake to the left of the gearstick (good) but also managed to put the footrest on the right (and I assume the throttle on the left)!!!
