It's funny that Camry came up in RX8 forum. There was a on-going discussion in one of the forum I posted where a guy has Camry V6 and GT3000 thinks his Camry is in every way better than my 2008 RX8.
He brought out the fact that V6 Camry 0-60mph is faster than RX8.
I didn't bother with that idiot. But many ppl defended for RX8 in that comparison.

Car companies are packing so much hp in their front drive family haulers it's hard to understand how they're not going to embarrass their halo cars.

^ I always believe a car is about handling not just 0-60.
When a car like Camry drives without feeling, it's not "driving". It's "moving".
That's why I finally came back with MT RX8

Too bad the Mazda 6 doesn't come with an MT option for the V6. It would be pure win. The V6 auto is pretty damn quick though man. I think it coudl take my 8.

Had a Camry loaner when my 8 was in the shop, the body roll almost made me crash when I went for a pass. The was probably a 07 or 08 Camry with the 4 cylinder. Why people buy this instead of an Accord or almost anything else is beyond me.

On topic: If a camry were to race any of us in a straight line and there was a dip some where along the way - that camry would KICK ALL OF OUR ASSES...HANDS DOWN.
Camry Stock Suspension > rx8 stock Suspension (in regards to handling dips)
Renesis Se3p proved that to me the other day....I think

Any car will be really crap with summer tires driving in winter. Wow, some people these days, are real huge idiots. I guess no one has common sense anymore.

I posted it there because it was such a good deal for RX8, didn't know it end up with an idiot bashing rx8 with he's V6 Camry that goes 0-60 a little faster than rx8 and think Camry is more Sporty car than RX8.
