WHO GIVES A RATS ANUS ABOUT THE Z. SERIOUSLY. I HONESTLY WENT OUT LOOKING TO BUY MY NEXT CAR WITHOUT BIAS. AND NO PREFERENCE TOWARDS ANYTHING. AFTER DRIVING AND TESTING MY CARS.... I.E. AUDI TT. 350Z.RX8.S2000. .... THE RX8. HANDS DOWN WAS THE ONE AND ONLY CHOICE. HONESTLY WITH THE BEAUTY, THE SLEEK LINES, AND THE HISTORY OF ROTARY POWER MADE THIS A NO BRAINER. I AN THE PROUD OWNER OF A BRILLIANT BLACK RX8 GT. AND ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT..... THE BEST THING IS WATCHING THE PEOPLE IN THE 350 Z, INFINITI G35 STARING AT MY CAR WHEN I DRIVE BY... THEIR LOSE.... HAHA

 

Bought the mag. Presentation and the pictures are nicely layed out. They certainly captured the best angles to look at for the MS RX-8. Time will tell how good the content is. I'd like to see articles like driving techniques, how suspension works, etc. I'm looking forward to their next issue.

 

Sweet:

 

Power category goes to the Nismo. Tie on handling...

 

Civility goes to the Mazdaspeed...

 

Tie on styling and overall...

 

A closeup of the stats panel for the magazine racers/stats freaks...

 

Advice for Nismo: Drop those flamboyant stickers.

Damn, the Mazdaspeed RX-8 looks hot. Call me a fanboy, but the Nismo looks drab when sitting next to the Mazdaspeed.

 

thanks for the pics


I cant believe it was a TIE in handling

 

They listed the Z as mid-engine? Z's are bland, heavy and BORING.

 

please, let's stop comparing these cars before people start making dumb arguments. oops, too late. if any of you think one car is inherently superior to the other, then i guess you see something that i don't.

 

after reading never ending 8 vs Z arguments i test drove a Z (MT of course). Nice ride...but...i was so glad to drive off in my 8

 

me too, i test drove the Z before the eight....i could have easily bought either...

guess which one im driving now?

 

My friend owns a 300 ZX, and he thinks the 350Z is dumb. It's way overrated according to him. It does look pretty though, prettier than his car, and WAY prettier than mine (SRT-4). The RX-8, however, is so pretty its rediculous. I think it is such a beautiful car. Props to you Rx-8 owners for picking great looking cars.

 

Beauty before torque...
