Im happy you put all those smiley faces and the 7up guy in your post though it makes this thread different from the other 12874817 threads about 350z vs rx8. Way to be.

Ahh, how little you know...
Seriously though looks are in the eyes of the beholder. As for reliability they have sorted that out. And burns oil, yes... yes it does. But as long as you are aware of it it's not a big deal, thats just the way the engine works. And what do you mean it just isn't a nice car? There are many, including plenty of Z owners that would say the RX-8 is a nicer car than the 350Z. Maybe not as powerful, but nicer. Most people when they say a car is nice they are referring to its overall looks, comfort, interior quality, etc.
Personally I don't find the RX-8 very comfortable, seating position is too high and not enough side bolster for hard cornering. But I think the interior feels and looks nicer. But I like the looks of the Z interior as well, and its raw functionality, but it feels a bit plasticy in areas.
Regardless its all comes down to what you like. I like things in my life to be thick, and the 350Z is very thick...
