wow, articles don't get more vanilla than that.
basically, it says it's a car.
oh, and it competes with the 350Z in the way you'd expect: a little slower in a straight line, but more practical. also, they say it could be a RWD alternative to "sporty coupes" like the Mini-S and the RSX... :p boooooring!!

pick up on the 247hp?
 
Wonder if they know something...... I guess 247 or 250 not much difference.

they're going by the conversion of 250ps = 247 hp, but the "provisional target" for NA is still 250 real horsepower (not that it'd make a huge difference to you or me, friend).

After reading their review ... I find it hard to believe that anyone there actually drove it ...

:mad:

(of course, that's IMHO)

Every car magzine is saying 247 hp I think is going to be 247 hp.Only mazda says 250 tagert so i think is 247 i hope is 250 not 247 .Don't forget they said with evol 287 with preproduction rx8 250 so cross you fingers because i am.
