Halle Berry is hot IMO, but I could do without Paris Hilton in the world (NOT hot) and I definitely don't like my car compared to her.

The write-up was pretty accurate until this little blurb..."The triangular shaped rotor that spins out power in one fuel-efficient four-step process".

Rather flowery and overwritten if you ask me. Still, I'm glad they like the car.

I agree with Jaguargod. The second they use the terms "rotor" and "fuel efficient" in the same sentence, they lost all credibility.

Not to mention using the words "clever" and "Paris Hilton" in the same sentence.

But in their defense, they'll put the 8 in a pretty elite group: NSX, S2000, Vette, 911 Carrera, MB SLK350. All very sexy designs. I'm not sure about the Crossfire, Mustang or 350Z, though.

Not to mention this blurb:

The airbag system, including side curtains for front and rear seats, helped the RX-8 win five stars in federal rollover crash tests.
What do airbags have to do with rollover crash tests?

I dont know about the NSX. Maybe it was a great design when it came out but the C4 Vette and Lamborghini Countach also looked good in 1990.

IMO, the sexiest cars on the road are the M3 and 360 Modena.

i think paris hilton is hot. I don't think she resembles the rx8 in any way though except for the fact that I'd like to spend "one night in" both.

Well obviously it isn't the greatest article...they say "fuel-efficient" in an article about the 8 :D
