The reviews that are negative focus on the "lack" of power as compared to the 8's direct competition (350z, Evo, etc). However time and time again it has won awards from major car magazines because of the smoothness of the ride.

So if you're looking for straight line dragstrip performance this car is not for you. If you plan on autocrossing you'll find out how much fun the car is in the twisties and how it begs to be driven hard.

I left my modded Mustang Gt for my RX8 and haven't looked back yet! Go for it, you won't be sorry.

if you'd rather be driving on mountain roads than going fast from stop-light to stop-light, then the rx8 is the car for you.

p.s. 18 mpg.
