Yeah this just proves my opinion correct, if youve got the money for a rx-8, dont get one, get something else.

haha. im surprised about the rx-8.even the rsx-type s overtook him. i was just waiting on that miata to pass the rx-8. even thow that miatia was way out of its league.i didnt know the s2000 was that quick.i thought the sti would own them through the turns.nice vid.

The RX-8 and Miata have the lease amount of power of most of the cars.
Only 238BHP for the RX-8.
But on TopGears track, the RX-8 tied the BMW M3 and Nission 350Z.

But that was the crapy rx8, vs the tunned version of all those cars (other then the skyline and the s2k), thats kinda unfair. Where was the mazada speed rx8?

hmm iono the rx8 is not FAST but its pretty agile and quick. Not a drag car but certainly can take turns at high speeds. Rx8 driver in that vid wasnt hitting all the way to the 9k revs ,but im not gonna say more. The point is he lost and thats that. Should watch the revenge battle when the Slightly tuned Mazdaspeed (suspension,airfilter,driver) rx8 whoops up on a factory performance S2000, Integra Type R, Golf R32, and Alfa GTA.
Just trying to back up the car I love so much because in reality its not all that bad. I admit it does lack torque but you just have to get the baby revvin high. :D

i hope ur not saying the WRX was an sti cuz it wasn't. an sti would have owned all of them but then again if there was an sti there there would also be an evo and then the evo would have owned

Hey chuck.
Hey i never got the air filter from you. (You said you had an extra one a long time ago at an RX7 meet at Hooters) Last june i think. You said you would bring it to the July meeting. But I suddenly left to do volunteer work for several months lol. Sorry. I was wondering if you still had it :)
hows the new turbo?

tuned versions? Im pretty sure, it looked like, there was a baseline(maybe with some sport package that adds nice tires) WRX not even an sti... get it straight gosh, friekin idiot- nepolion dinomite< I think they should've thrown a V8 miata in there for fun! but then again they dont have those in japan... USDM ROCKS!!well... the aftermarket for making v8 miatas at least.... whatever
