VW GTI, most likely. A little more practical and almost as fun of a drive!

Who knows, it would be badass though, I know that much.
If that is true, I will be trading in my MS3 (or whatever I'm driving at that point) for the 2.3L Turbo Miata. I will buy a clunker for my daily driver and keep the Miata the rest of my life. That thing would run with C5 Z06's and base C6's on a track.

The only other car I've ever owned that even came close to being as desirable as my 8 is the '80 RX-7 I bought in late '79.

But the 8 is a much better car than the 7, so I'd have to keep it. It's not my DD, so it's not killing me at the pump.

I would, however, be willing to trade my DD for either a Smart Car or Yaris. The Prius is just too hideously ugly. Looks like a cockroach.

following what i think the argument rules would be as I believe to be intended, then nothing. i THINK the rules should be comparable cars.

SO... s2000, 350z, evo (NOT evo X), subaru wrx, prelude, rsx, eclipse...should we throw in srt-4, saturn sky, and solstice in for honorable mention?? nah..

and NONE of the above. the rx8 is definitely the most beautiful, pratical, awesome handling car of the mix...else we would probably have one of these other cars!... wait, so maybe any car including exotics DO count... ok then, my vote?
McClaren F1!!

I don't think I would trade my car. This is my first car and I have some memories attached to the car which I hold very dear.

I will say that the 8 isnt the fastest car by a long shot but it is definitly close to the best looking ones.

BMW 135i. BMW got back to its pure and simple roots with that car, and it is fine.

I wouldn't trade it. I'll just avoid the answer if anyone mentions anything above 50k.
