^Yup. But the biggest sticker is the most important one. The RACEREADY.CA sticker!! That's gone. Your old car now has the power of a KA24E

I don't know what you're talking about in every comparison test the RX-8 won over the 350Z.

LMFAO!

Quoted ftmft!
-The RX-8 is great at speed, but getting up to speed is a challenge. With only 159 pound-feet, the RX-8 has less than half the torque of the Shelby GT

-The six-speed gearbox and short gearing don't alleviate the problem, either. On steep grades, downshifts are required from sixth gear to hold a constant speed, and two-lane passing requires a downshift to third and a planted right foot

-The lack of oomph was more than a source of constant frustration — running the RX-8 near its 9000-rpm redline burns a lot of fuel as well, resulting in a cruising range of less than 250 miles.

-On the track, the Mazda couldn't make up for its woeful lack of torque and posted the slowest time around the circuit.


^Just from C&D!

I could go on.. but I have to get back to work.


Fail is epic!

First Place: Four of a Kind

2007 Mazda RX-8

But just as on the street, the RX-8 inspires confidence in the driver to carry more speed through the corners, and the challenge of maintaining velocity in this car is ultimately more rewarding than relying on the gas pedal in the others to make up for your mistakes. That's not to say some extra power isn't sorely needed here — it is — but even at the ripe old age of five, the RX-8 pleases us the most.


Second Place: Four of a Kind

2008 Audi TT 2.0T





Third Place: Four of a Kind


2007 Nissan 350Z

The plastic has been upgraded since the 350Z's launch in 2002, and the padded armrests are a nice touch, but it's obvious that this car was built on a tight budget, as evidenced by headrest stakes that bulge into your back when you lean your head rearward.
On the worst road surfaces, the 350Z keeps going where the driver points it, but the way the suspension bucks and jives requires a certain amount of faith from the driver that the car will stay planted.

Think of the 350Z as a Japanese Corvette. It has plenty of speed at a good price but lacks the refinement needed for all-around greatness. In this group, that's enough to keep the 350Z down.

MT

First Place: 2004 Mazda RX-8

Second Place: 2004 Nissan 350Z


No refinement like the owners.

Read the reviews. Even the TT beat the 350z.
