I have that issue of Car and Driver...

I was suprised in a way with their results being it is the 232 hp version of the 8.

But I really wasn't surprised that they liked the car so much even though it doesn't have the power of the other cars.

My boyfriend showed me that issue and it actually made me a little pissy. Gr @ those two stupid Z/Stang owners.

hang a sec something seems odd in that article.

arent' Rx8's cheaper in the US than the 350Z?? They are in Australia. If so, why did the 350Z get the best score for PRICE (as tested) ...ie 20?? I don't get it

The comparison is done between the 350Z Base Model and the RX8 Grand Touring edition. The 350Z Base is less than 30k, while the RX8 GT retails for approx. $33k. That's the reason for the price difference.
