If the RSX was in that competition, it would be no competition at all, so no.

 

What would be the point in continueing production? They already achieved perfection....

 

It's not a bad review of the Z. They were just looking for all around comfort and performance. I think it seems like a pretty fair review.

 

I like the RX8 quite a bit, from the interior and exterior...but my God why does it have to be so gutless and slow?

 

I don't know about you, but if I'm looking for a fast sports car, I could really care less about back seat comfort. Even if the Z won, this would be a ridiculous comparison.

 

I feel like making a chart comparing the pros and cons of the top 3. I sincerely feel that the Z is the best of them all.

 

We lost because of the interior? lol

 

And don't forget the backseat, or lack of.

 

After reading the whole article the Z fit best for my needs. It seemed overall positive for the Z. Seems in a lot of ways they were harder on the other cars in the roundup.

The only complaint I have about the article is they seemed to not know what they were looking for in a car.

I would rate sports cars different than I would sports sedans or passenger cars.

Back seats should be noted in the overall standings but thats about all.

 

i bought my Z because of its sleek exterior, ultra responsive handling, power, and bang for my buck. If I wanted luxury, I'd buy a mercedes. 'Nuff said.

 

after reading and watching the video, you'd think the Z was the best 'all around" of the bunch, whacky scoring system is the culprit. I actually like the 350 review, pointed out all the things I bought it for, not intersted in leather and wood interiors on my 'sports car'. mine certainly doesn't sound like a coffee grinder. hmmmm

 

Please don't be mixing 'muscle car' and 'corvette'...

The 350Z and Corvette are both 'sports cars'....

the 350Z should never have a 'muscle car' title

 

I'm sorry, but when did a 4-door become a sports car. I say the RX-8 is a sport-sedan at best.

 

There were no letters to the editor about this in the most recent C and D that I just got, probably next month. Log on to Caranddriver.com and send them a note if you don't like the test.

I think they chose, or got the wrong model. Should have at least been an enthusiast. And, the back seat thing is ridiculous. How can you downgrade the car because its the only 2 seater. I think that should be an upgrade.

My 03 z is a little crude and noisy, compared to a luxury car,but the more I drive it the more I like it.

 

I think this is the point in the repost where I'm supposed to bring up riding a unicycle in the twisties and confuse a lot of people...

 

LOL! Yeah man unicycles, RSX, and RX-8 rules!

 

Yeah man, EVO mag is awesome. I think I posted a link awhile back, but they have a comparison test between a supercharged 350Z, a BMW M coupe and a Cayman S. It was a good read.

 

After reading some of the articles (mustang, 350z, rx8), I'm curious if the writer(s) really are car/driving enthusiasts...

 

after reading this i went to a mazda dealership for an rx8 test drive and the salesperson saw the z and said, "ummm why do you need rx8 for?" nuff said.

 

For the backseat. Apparently, you did not read the article.
