in simpler terms, the rx-8 is like ocean's 11; it's clever, smart, elegantly engineered, a bit nerdy, and tons of fun. the z, on the other hand, is like a jerry crockheimer movie, say armageddon. it's loud and, well, loud, entertaining, but a bit stupid, like a big dumb animal =P

You're asking about a 350Z on a forum full of hardcore rotary enthusiasts. Of course everyones comments will say that the Z is not fun/cool as the 8.
In my opinion, the Z's capability is pretty much on par with the 8. The Z's handling is still incredible just like our 8's, the Z's power overpowers the 8, and it's a great car for enthusiasts. The 8's gas mileage is pretty bad compared to the Z but the comes with seating for 4. Alot of people complain on the Z's ergonomics, but like said before, it's more for an enthusiast. I love my 8, I just wish I had power and mpg like the Z.

Well, if you're into beating high school kids off of red lights then the Z is for you.
However, if you consider driving to be a fun way to unwind and relax and/or get invigorated and charged up, get the 8.
Haven't you seen the top gear video?
Someone will find a link, I'm sure.

According to the top gear episode (i dont know which one but it is out there) the bmw m3, the 350z, and the RX-8 scored the exact same track time. this means if u want to brag about how u can keep up with ppl who have 70 more horsepower than u then the RX-8 is the PERFECT car for u.
Its definately the perfect car for me!

^Top gear is extremely biased, they hate american cars with a passion
Just ask those people who want you to get the Z what a wankel rotary engine is, they will probably shut up.

Power!!
I love my RX8. And I get goose bumps every time I watch the Top Gear Review.
The best part is you get to go to the track and blow by all the guys in "faster" cars that talk smack about your 4 door.
