Talking RX-8 40th Anniversary Badge vs Mustang 40th Anniversary Badge

Trying to kill sometime before I go home, so I need some support from the community here.

So my friend recently purchased a 2004 Mustang with the 40th Anniversary package. When he parked his car next to mine, I was surprised to see it had a somewhat "similar" color to mine (but lighter tone) and also a unique 40th Anniversary badge.

(I have to admit, even though it is the V6 version, the car is very powerful. That edition apparently came with upgraded intake/exhaust from factory - which is very nice and makes the engine feel very powerful.)

Anyway, my point is not to compare the cars mechanically as they are totally different animals, but to compare the 40th Anniversary badges, LOL. My friend and I started arguing about which badge looks better

I think I like the rotor on the badge better than the ponny I think mine looks more elegant

What you think??

Powerful? Really? Really? ......................................... Really?

It's a gutless, slow, horrible 190hp V6 Mustang. Horrible! How DARE you photograph your 40th Anniversary RX8 with that shitbox next to it?

Horrible.

There is no comparison. The rotary still wins.

I've seen people photographing their RX-8s next to worse things, so please cut me so slack, LOL!

The RX-8 emblem is so much nicer... The Mustang one looks like they took a regular Mustang emblem and then added the "40th" on it. While the RX-8 one looks like it was created from scratch.
