Mazda RX-8

“it is a really you know rev happppy engine it revs all the way to 9,000 with no hesitation”

“The engine, funny enough, you sit so high in the RPM, you still find yourself wanting more, which is I thought was impossible in a rotary”

“it's pretty quick but it's not like fast fast”

“Oh, the chassis is amazing. It just feels like a bigger Miata with slightly better steering.”

“The chassis is phenomenal. Everything I want it to do, it's right there. It's right on rails.”

“The turning is so wonderfully crisp, the steering beautifully judged. There is a near Lotuslike quality to the way this car goes down a road and that is the highest of praise when it comes to a chassis.”

“It's a really enjoyable power level, too. I mean, you can rev this thing out to 9 grand all day long”

“This is just it's a hoot and a half. It's really really fun track experience.”

“what Mazda have created here has to be one of the best driving experiences. Full stop.”

“you're getting a lot of practicality you're getting four seats”

“the big surprise here is just how luxurious this car is. In addition to it being as good to drive and sporty as it is, I have great visibility. These seats are super comfortable.”

“it has a rotary which means it's terribly unreliable has absolutely horrendous fuel economy”

“The prices of them in the classifides are tempting. And you've been looking at them for ages thinking, 'Yeah, yeah, I know why. You won't fool me. I'm not getting an RX8, but hear me out. You should.'”

“you have to be willing to deal with the more intensive maintenance that you get with a rotary”

“you'll have some money left over with the RX-8”
