I have never driven an rx8 so I really cant comment. I assume you have driven a 350z for many a miles to make such a statement.

Nissan 350Z,
If you like your car so much, what are you doing on a RX8 forum?

I think the 350Z is a very good performing car. Nissan350Z give an 8 a test and see for yourself. I also think everyone is welcome on this board no matter the car you like or drive

I bet the pistol will, but engine life depends on how it's being used on daily basis.

There is difference in hp and torque, but the rx8 displacement is only 1/3 that of the Z! :o
Can you imagine a 3.5L rotor engine?!? Maybe not with 2, but 3 or 4 rotors? Like the race car mazda used back in '91 in the Le Mans endurance race (and won)!!!

That would mean hundreds and hundreds of hp and torque... and embarrassment to many cars and supercars...
