Let all give props to Mazda for giving best motoring an Rx-8 with not only the Grand Touring Pkg. but also NAVIGATION! I mean seriously were they trying to loose. This is in reference to the well-debated rx8/s2000/integraR/g35/miata battle.
I could be very very wrong, and Im lazy to go back and check it out:

1. The 'battle' with the G35, S2K, Miata & RX8 was here in the US? When did it take place? Was is JSpec or US-Spec or Euro-Spec or what??

2. The 'Battle' with the 350Z, Accord Type-R & IS300: where did it take place? The RX8 was a tunned car by Feed, right? What upgrades did that car had aside from suspension (and ugly wing) ?

3. The 3rd 'Battle' with the S2K, Golf, Alfa & Accord Type-R: where did it take place? Was it a MazdaSpeed as the title said with no engine upgrades and simply suspension? I would assume that was a JSpec unit, right?

In my opinion, if the only tunning done to the car was in terms of suspension and ride height...it performed astoudingly well (and the driver on the last Video was a PLAIN MANIAC!)

Ahhhhhhhh, I should have taken Japanese back in College! darn it!

1. The rx8/s2000/integraR/g35/miata bestmotoring battle took place in japan car was Jspec with Grand Touring Pkg. And Navigation

2. The 'Battle' with the 350Z, Accord Type-R & IS300 also in japan and the car was Jspec with what looks like the the base sport pkg modifided.

3. The 'Battle' with the S2K, Golf, Alfa & Accord Type-R was yet again japan same track as #1 it was the Jspec mazdaspeed Rx-8 with just suspension mods.

Mmmmm....that's true...is the MS version. Differences?? mainly suspension. As far as I know there are no internals changed on the engine.
