RX-8 versus Ferrari (looks only)
I saw these 2 cars parked next to each other at the gym today.
Needless to say, the Ferrari didn't look like it costs $160,000 more than the RX-8. Do you any of you think the RX-8 LOOKS like it should cost way more than it does? When I first saw these 2 cars parked next to each other, I thought to myself that these cars both look amazing. I also wondered which car was parked there first. All I know is the RX-8 did not look out of place at all being parked next to the Ferrari.

I certainly respect your opinion. I've seen a woman look at an RX-8 and ask if it was some type of exotic. I've also heard a woman ask if the car was some type of Porsche and she was completely blown away when she was told the car costs a little over $30K. Of course knowing what the cars are and what they costs, you really can't compare the two. Nevertheless, I do think the RX-8 looks like a car that costs far more than it actually does.

I see the OP point of view, I have gotten compliments on my car and I live in a very exotic car locale. Minus all the scoops on the F, if the 8 were a 100,000 dollar car. It would be rare and exotic too.
That said, it's not a 100,000 dollar car and that is a Ferrari. I think reddragoness' car can pass for $100,000.

The Ferrari Badge alone worth 100K. Seriously.
Mazda's badge on the other hand ...
Well, I never really liked Ferrari for some reason, sure it might be just my "sour grapes," but what Im thinking is, for the kind of money, I can mod the **** out of almost any car that will only cost 1/2 as much and I still have the other 1/2 of the money to do other things. know what Im saying ?
in the other words, to me Ferrari is just not worth it. Just me tho.
