370Z or RX-8...
Oh to be young again. Throw $7,000.00 on a SC for an 8 to make it equal to a 370? 
Just because we own the cars doesn't mean we have to be unrealistic. Performance wise, the 370Z is better, it's as simple as that. I have been ripped apart by a 350 Nismo and getting passed when you have your foot to the floor is not fun.
But it is what it is, If I wanted a Nismo I would have one.

A super base model 370z on a track against a loaded Rx8 R3. The Z would spank the 8 real bad. But I choose my 8 because its my personal perference.

Lol 9k, Dont pull that young card on me here lol, Yes a $7,000 SC would make it equal to a 370Z, hell they'd cost about the same as well... Performance wise a 370Z will kill a NA RX-8... but its a different story with a FI RX-8. Why wouldnt the SC 8 be the equal to a 370Z? They both would ~ have the same hp at the wheels, and if the Z had more hp the 8 would make it up with less weight and better handling. /end thread jack

^ Dude those what if convo's can go forever. So you boost a 8 to beat a stock 370z. Then what happens when the 370Z has boost. Can you see where the convo is going. its gunna go off track lol.
You are showing your age bro. You love your car so you will try and defend it to the death. I get it 
Buy a new R3, throw $10,000.00 at it.
Buy a new 370, throw $10,000.00 at it.
Then have Sabine Schmidt take them both around the ring. Guess which car will have the fastest lap times?

My only real comment - I also had no idea the 370 was so much BIGGER than the 8!!! Those photos are really crazy!
I wont get into this very old argument, also because the 370 is the new version....its a far better car by the numbers. The 350 would have been a better comparison. And even there.... People like the 8 because it has an extraordinarily good feel, and that alone is a selling point. It also has the very unique rotary scream, which i think is also worth every penny. Aside from that....its a hard sell.

When 350Z was compared with RX-8, I would prefer the 8 but when a 370Z comes in the picture, there is no way I would choose the 8 unless I really needed a 4 seater. The 370Z is just way better and should be considering the higher price, the Z's power overshadows the 8's handling and handling is very subjective matter as well.
JK actually I dont remember what happened to be honest...
