Sounds like you you like your rx-8 I get tired of hearing how great the Miata is handling wise, my parents have a Miata and it doesn't compare in any way to my 8 in terms of feedback, feel, handling, or smoothness.

As for the video, well you repeat yourself a lot

I was left wondering why the vid was taken in a car... words on a page would have sufficed and could have been editied for clarity, brevity, etc., There was only straight road driving footage from the passenger footwell (!) of an excellent example of a distracted driver talking to a camera(?). Why bother with all that? And where was the comparison? There was no RX-8 seen or heard, even from the footwell. Time for take #3.

It was like watching Tim and Eric's Awesome Show. All it needed was the "Great Job" banner.

I think the big problem with the comparison is that it all could have been typed out. The video included no extras from the medium. No eye candy, no real specifics about the interior of both cars, just someone rambling about stuff. If this was an audio clip, I don't think we would have missed anything at all.

If I was going to watch a review or comparison of anything that was similar to this video, the person in this video better be a hot chick in a bikini or the car should be filled with kittens and puppies.
