Your best bet would be to go to a dealership. I test drove mine four times. I know it's mine because it was the only base model Briliant Black RX-8 on the lot with an L shaped scratch in the door jamb. :D
I put on 58 miles before I even owned her!! Be careful, they're addictive.
BTW, tibby's aren't all bad, a buddy of mine has one and he loves it. You will notice a definate difference in performance when under "spirited driving" conditions.

The Eclipse?! It's been an ugly looking POS for the past 10 years at least, and the upcoming redesign, while different, was still better looking in the concept stages than it will actually look in the pending production phase.
My brother has a Mazda6. Smooth ride, a lot of interior space, but it feels heavy when he drives it. Plus, it's fwd and heavier than an 8. The Maxima, I believe has 270hp. Except for looks, I'd be giving that more of the inside track than the Eclipse.
Just my thoughts.

everytime i see a mazda6, it is a girl driving it. i like them myself but they just seem more of the female choice to me. and the eclipse, well, that's just wrong. i would HIGHLY encourage the 8 or the Maxima. just my two cents.

yeah, I honestly wish he had a type of car in mind, then move from there, his choices vary but I guess it's smart, you never want to end up is something then regret it. I'm a big fan of the Mazda 6, always have been

Great Car ":Maxima"
Got a Bronze 2004 for the wife, she loves it. Good motor, handled great, I thought, untill she got me the 8 for x-mas.
It does come with a couple of flaws, front tire feather, just like the Z problem, and interior quality not as good as her 2000 Maxima.
Put it on the Hwy, turn on the radar detector-it averges 26-28mpg, with AC, trunk loaded, big dog in the back!!
