man... its bad enough that the s2k has earned the title "torqueless wonder" in the evo forums... i mean what more from an RX-8 with an higher RPM and delivers torque later??? i'm sorry but RX8 just doesnt cut it for me... the body's not even sleek or stylish... looks likes someone beat up an s2 and it got all swollen... and a hard top got bolted along with 3 extra doors.... wtf

Trust me owning both... the S2K and the RX8 are NOTHING not anywhere close to being similar.

i know... i'm just overexaggerating to the point where it doesnt make ANY sense at all... its just that the rx-8 looks really swollen... but thats just IMO... you dont gotta agree with me and sorry if i offended you. its just not my style of car... i DO however like the 3rd gen RX-7 because they have twin turbos... for that matter i like the 2nd gen too... and my friend owns a first gen... i'm not a rotary hater... its just that rx8 isnt my thing.

That actually has nothing to do with what you previously posted. Trust me the 8 does NOT look like a swollen S. BTW where did you come up with 3 extra doors?? the S has 2 doors... and the 8 also has 2 doors with 2 suicide type doors that open to the back but still considered to be a coupe. If you want to talk about a Swollen S... go look at the Z4. That has many more similiarities to the S than an 8 would ever have.
Oh and you didn't offend me. I've owned an S and now the 8. And yes everyone does have the opinions.. but to say it looks like a swollen S.. i just don't know where you could have gotten that idea.
