You want to know if the 8 can beat a civic...why don't you try searching for the many RX 8 vs civic threads.
and I was being positive...I was positive that you should stop typing and start reading. You didn't even read my first reply to this thread. I said that people here would be biased. Yet you go and asking again what I thought of the 8.

do you know what an 8 engine is? its a 2 rotor...just think twice as big
it should beat a civic
there are many sites that will give you instant gas mileage...shoot even the dealership will tell you...but since you don't have the time I get about 20mpg city/highway
the 8 isn't fast...shoot its a 1.3 liter, but it will outhandle most cars in the corners...thats about all you need to know.
if you want to go in a straight line, the car isn't for you, if you want a reasonable car with awesome handling and is very practicable

How hard is it to scour google.com for JUST FIVE MINUTES for published review articles on the RX-8, and compare test results to other cars you might be interested in? Do you not know how to research? Can you not retain information? If not, that's what pen and paper or, gasp, a word processor is for.
The education system is failing us.
And no, RX-8 is NOT the car for you. You need a Nissan Skyline GTR. It does everything.

I think this dudes a troll! Look at all his posts! He's asking stupid questions, I mean " will this thing beat a civic?" gave that away for me. Some ******* with 3 friends behind him in his moms basement typing the stupid stereotypical bashes about the 8. Ie: slow, bad gas mileage, etc. TROLL!!!

RX-8 is very quick. It will run the same time as an m3.............On a windy mountain road with very few straight aways.
If you are straight line racing down a city block between red lights like an idiot, the performance will be significantly less amazing.
Do you plan to get an automatic or manual transmission?

Evos have awful reliabilty, most owners need to rebuild their engines every 15,000 miles and the clutch goes about every 10k miles. In addition they handle horribly and the engines are totally maxed out, all the mods in the world won't get much more horsepower.
The RX-8 on the other hand... Just a simple little bolt on turbo and you're at 300+ WHP which will allow you to blow the doors off of just about anything on the street. In, short, go get yourself that manual RX-8!

I do not think anyone is actually trying to help him since most forums have something very novel... a search function? ...
