Money's Best Cars 2004

We made third place! Granted, I think we should have won, because it seems the biggest complaint they had was the styling, but still not bad.

Thanks Elara for the good find/ They sure liked comparing the RX-8 to the Z.

It's weird how in the story they say of the 8:

"Once again, brains win over brawn -- the year's best sports car is also its best bargain. Four doors and all."

but then the car gets a 3rd... a 3rd in what? They just called it THE YEAR'S BEST SPORTS CAR for gosh sake!

So I guess it's best sports car, best bargain, just not best 4-dr sedan, so it gets 3rd?

I'm cool with that - I just hate stupid headlines!

Yes, it is the third best car overall (using Money's priorities), AND also THE best sports car.
