True. I only found it because a few of you older members told me about it.
Maybe the seniors should bump more often...

Never seen it. Loved it.
I thought that I was going to hate the dude at first, but when it comes to looks people love it or hate it. Just like the 350z.
Great video, this is why reposts are not entirely evil. Thanks.

Do you guys know which course both the guys were referring to when they ranked the RX-8 the same as the BMW M3? Was this some kind of standard course?

it's Top Gear's private test course; ALL the cars they have tested are done on the same course, with varying weather conditions.

You should check out the Audi TT and the crossfire as they are compared to the RX8...

Enjoy

Thanks for the response, HiTMaNN.

Did they post the specs for the course? I am very curious what's in the course.
I went to their website
http://www.topgear.com/
but did not see anything about their course.
