Thats pretty cool. i was actually on my way to the mazda web site, cuz i wanna see what the price range is, i gotta get something till i can save up enough for my rx8.
I test drove an RX8 at the mazda rev it up and was fairly disappointed. The clutch was like an on/off switch (about 2" from disengaged to engaged). The power was decent at first, I knew I would have to rev the rotary, but after 5k it was just a flat power band. It really needs a turbo! There wasn't any rush or anything. It handled pretty good, but pushes at the limit. I did bark the tires pretty good going into 2nd though (no lift to shift ).
