Review of RX-8 calls it "New Class Leader - better than BMW 3, 350Z, Audi TT"
 
I had not seen this review before, even though it's almost 2 years old, so if it was already posted, I beg forgiveness.

At any rate, two notable excerpts:

"[N]o one else can match it in chassis balance - not even BMW 3-series Coupe. This car is so composed, so smooth and so agile in corners. No matter how hard you abuse it, it remains safe and neutral."

"In contrast [to its competitors], the Mazda RX-8 is the real driver’s car. Its precision and feel inspires you to drive faster and faster, and eventually reward you with higher level of satisfaction. A new class leader has been born."

Who the hell is Autozine?

Anyway, I'm going to start up an internet car review database, and name my old solara the greatest supercar of all time.

Not seen it before either. It's consistant with other car mag reviews during the 8's debut year, as the 8 was picked by many test reviews as the choice over the 350Z, G35, and S2K.

sure about that? ;)


The RENESIS engine powering the Mazda RX-8, which stands for “the rotary engine's GENESIS”, was carefully prepared for series production as the power plant for the RX-8.

Yeah...

...Is there something different about that one?

That is a sweet interior. Just the GT Package with yellow/black leather?

It looks.....more exotic for some reason...

The yellow car is the final version of the car before the production version came out. It has the cooler side mirrors with turn signals, etc..
