Never had a hot chick in hip huggers walk AWAY from me.. dont know what you mean.. likewise.. when have you seen your 8 drive AWAY from you?? 
I like the steering wheel. Although today I was cleaning mine and I found a crapload of long blonde hairs behind trapped between the steering column and the instrument pod.. It collects in there like a rats nest.

Love's going to leave me
I'm too sexy for my shirt too sexy for my shirt
So sexy it hurts

First choice is the rotor-ish accent on the hood. I love it - even if I went for an aftermarket hood some time in the future, it would have to have that styling.
Second choice is the pronounced front fenders. Grrrrr!

Mazdabob mentioned at one of the recent RX-8 gatherings in the area that the water just dances on the hood when you drive. It's true too! It collects in the grooves and jiggles around, very hypnotic to stare at, not suggested at very high speeds!
From pictures, I think the back end looks really nice with the rotary accent and exhaust finishers, but I haven't seen it in person. Would be even more striking with rotor shaped exhaust tips :D

My favorite part is going out to the garage when it's dark and unlocking with the remote. The interior lights do their soft-start and the beautiful interior comes into view as if it is materializing in response to your wishes.
I also like the little swale in the roof and the pug shape of the rear glass.

I prefer the side, how the lines flow from the front to the back, giving way to the huge wheels. Looks best when viewed from a low angle, like this:

Definitely every angle.
It's hard for me to choose between the front view and the view of the fenders while behind the wheel, seeing them protruding from the side, looking at the rotor shape in the hood and looking at the tach as the needle sweeps up to the 9K RPM mark then seeing how fast I am actully going in 2nd geer...60+ MPH and I LOVE the digital speedo, no matter what some of the stuffy fools say on here about no analog speedo, then looking up in the rear view and seeing the spoiler I have with it's curved up lip on the back end side, I could go on and on, but...
There, was that one long compound sentence or what? To sum it up, I love this car from every aspect point of view.

This has got to be my favorite sight on the 8...
I just wish it didn't cost me $ every time I wanna see it...
So for all of the 12-18 miles I see it I'm in love...
