Here's another one guys.

PS - I know the author - good bloke but needs more time in the car methinks...(hi Karl )...

 

Yeah but this line was telling :
"if any car ever needed forced induction ......"

 

Absolutely - we'd all love a factory turbo car. I told him myself that hopefully those kind of comments will assist Mazda's product planning.

 

Pretty well matches most reviews of the car.

Typical reactions to the RX-8 are you either love it or you can't figure if you hate or love it.

 

I've asked Karl that, assuming some people can't stand the sight of an Evo or Sti (much less live with one as a daily driver), what other 4 seater coupe can you buy for the same money that goes and handles as well?

Waiting on the answer...

I think this car will always struggle in reviews because motoring journos are constantly driving torquey V8's, etc and put too much weight on straight line performance over the many other things the RX8 does well.
