Even though I'm a girl, I get a lot of comments from girls at my salon than guys. They love the way it looks. I was trying to decide when car shopping between the 350 or the 8 and I picked the 8. There are so many 350s on the road around here that people don't think as much of them as they used to. Now the 8, that's extremely rare in my area

So, I'd probably say RX8 = S2000 > 350.

the rx8 is way sexier looking(totally unbiased opinion b/c i like honda and nissan too) but the s2k's convertability really evens it out because *most* girls love that.

Yeah, my friend who has an S2000 always gets a lot of girls asking him for rides because they want to ride around in a convertible. When I get asked to take them for rides, they always seem to oogle over the styling. They seem pretty even in the amount of interest generated. Z's don't seem to get a whole lot of attention around here. I suppose it's because they've got a bit of Mustang syndrome (too many on the road).

I just heard that a couple of young ladies were told I had an RX-8 and they said, all excited, "Oh my God, that's my favorite car!"
I wonder why I never had that with an Oldsmobile.

I'm not sure since with my eight I get girls who are attracted to my car but they are ether older (ex rotary owners) or high schoolers (they like the lines). Girls my age look at the s2k more, my friend and I parked our cars together just to test it out one day and we noticed more girls our age were checking out his car.

What's funny is on the area I live I get more compliments & notice people looking at my car now (RX8) than I had when I was driving around my Porsche 911. Of course I'm in Mercedes, BMW, Porsche heaven here in Glendale/LA.

Out of the three discussed here, I think the 8 is best, often garnering favorable comments from the ladies. However, the absolute best chick magnet I ever drove is a Hummer H2! A friend of mine asked me to drive his for a few weeks to put mileage on it (another story). Man, it was a POS to drive and I hated it, but, everywhere I went chicks really dug it! Absolute strangers asked for rides and jumped in! They loved the "hunky" looks and the DVD in the headrests didn't hurt either. So, the Hummer is a bummer, but if you want to score you can't ask for more!

On the road in traffic the other day, I pulled to a stoplight. I was about 3 feet away from the civic to the right lane. It was bumpin' music so it attracted attention. When it goes green I pull up and see them speeding up with me. Nothiing but chicks right there. Five chicks all waving at me... or my car actually.
oh yea...
I'm gunna say I didn't read that. And pray she doesn't read this. :o
oh yea...

In Glendale there is a disprportianate amount of wealthy Armenians, and for them the status symbol of cars is MBZ. I laugh when I see s class Mercedes. Here you have a $100K car, and you might as well have a Ford Taurus. BMW, Porsche, MBZ all plentiful here. I got to know some Armenian kids that were in their early 20's & they were driving around in Porsches. I was amazed until i went to their houses and they were all living with their parents. It's not the fact that they were making a lot of money (some were), but that they had no living expenses other than the car. Porsches in LA are a dime a dozen (hate to say that as I really liked mine). Too much money out here. On the positive note I am lucky to see 1 or 2 RX8's in a given day vs. 10 305 Z's, & 10 Infiniti G35's.
As for the 8 in so cal... driving the 10 miles to work today, I saw 2 other RX-8s on the way. Getting quite common.

The RX-8 is a really good looking car. It's a great design. But compared with a Z or an S2K, I'd say it would take 3rd place in the view of most girls.
I only say this because while the front end of the 8 is amazing, the side-view and C-pillars make the car look a bit odd. To me, the oddity is what makes it cool. But girls (and the general public) are looking for the slick profile of a sportscar.
The Z and the S2K have that wedge-shaped profile, and overall have that low, flat appearance.
As far as my Spyder, since it's so rare and resembles a Boxster or maybe even an exotic, it turns many heads and girls always tell me they love the car. People are always shocked that it's "just" a Toyota.

On a side note, I had a boo-boo with my 8 so I'm borrowing my mom's Spyder and I hate it. It's too small, very ugly in the front, and not enough power for me. :D

But the Spyder isn't ugly! I admit, the huge headlights are pretty dumb-looking, but I've grown to like them.
Unless you're a huge girl, the car shouldn't be too small for you. Try taking some curves- the mid-engine layout combined with it's 2,150 lb weight will make you like the car more. It is definitely underpowered, but that's its only drawback.

Know what takes 4th place? The MR2 Spyder. Guys know it's about as ugly as Michael Jackson's face. Girls sometimes like it, but only when they're driving it. It's a chick car...
And it still can't fit 3 ladies inside with me...
(Which I have done on several occasion and it's fun... )

To me, the front end of the s-2k and the 8 are very similar.
