It keeps up fine. Search for "RX8" and you'll see your question asnwered at least a dozen times.

Not fast at all? Maybe not at a drag strip, but an S2000 is not exactly a drag racer either.

14.5 seconds for a RWD car for less than 26 000$ is very good.

... i dont consider 14.6 good for a car at that price. the s2k is not a drag vehicle either but its a hell of a lot faster then that POS. The maintenance on those things are horrible too. Cmon guys there is no comparison

I do agree they are a bit overpriced for what you get, should be a low 20's vehicle price wise
