I drove a RX8 for a bit. It was a really nice car and the interior was sweet. It shifted good, but a tad notchier than I thought it would be. Handling was excellent (one thing Mazda has down pat on all their cars). It was down on power though. It was a 6 speed and I lit the tires up for about 10 feet on the launch and barked them on the 1-2 shift. The engine was really smooth and linear, but there wasn't much up top, which suprised me for a rotary.
