7 is better performance but 8 is damn sexy

RX-7 ...

RX-8 is supposedly a booboo to install a sound system in ...

RX7 without a shadow of a doubt, its in a completely different league to the 8. The 8 doesnt even come close in both loks or performance. Might as well be comparing a ferrari to a yugo

No doubt, the Yugo walks all over the Ferrari ... Old school rules !

^^see thats the same argument with the 7vs8. The RX7 is considerably faster (just like the ferrari compared to the yugo), and is also visibly much better looking (again, ferrari vs yugo). But some people still protest the 8 is better

Some people are under the impression that newer is always better ...

Grez~Supra_RZ-S · Post by **Grez~Supra_RZ-S** » 28 May 2004, 12:32

exactly. But if you look at manufacturers, theyre older cars are always the better ones.
Eg, Z32 300zx better than Z33 350z

i just like the look of the 8 better, 7 i know is better performance.

I dont know about performances on RX7 or RX8... maybe Im a Ricer lol

Lets talk about Visuals: At first, I loved rx7 and hated rx8. but now, it is the opposite, with time I have noticed that RX8 looks more solid, and strong. RX7 looks too fragile... Definitely, I love RX8.

Have you seen it at BPs commercial pub??

RX8 Rules!!!! to me it just looks better. and the RX7 is fragile. both of the cars are nice but i just like the RX8 better. and this topic should become a poll so it would be easier to tell which one everyone likes the most.
and Renvi!!

wats up with your icon/avatar?

Grez~Supra_RZ-S · Post by **Grez~Supra_RZ-S** » 29 May 2004, 12:41

how do you mean the RX7 is 'fragile'?

Drewb99 · Post by **Drewb99** » 30 May 2004, 02:56

FD RX7. The RX8's got good handling and the Mazdaspeed RX8 is even better, but for its price it should be able to keep up with cars like the BMW M3.

rx8 looks great physically, but it slightly no good in performance (below the expectation.....)

nfsdriver · Post by **nfsdriver** » 07 Jun 2004, 01:02

i would choose rx-7 because i was watchin a show about rx-7s and rx-8 and the rx-7 had better performance than rx-8.. so i would choose rx-7

nightrider · Post by **nightrider** » 08 Jun 2004, 02:39

this argument is gonna go on for ever....................

o0Yo FLipsidER JQ0o · Post by **o0Yo FLipsidER JQ0o** » 12 Jun 2004, 21:17

Ive thought about it some, and i fiured i like them both the same. But dat dosent mean that I'm going for the RX-8 when im goin for some speed

^Sparco^ · Post by **^Sparco^** » 12 Jun 2004, 23:37

Fragile = weak. Probably it is a bad translation. I meant RX7 looks so weak, so small, tiny. It could fly when cross with a lorry lol...

RX8 looks more strong, and it has more performance possibilities. wow! visit the official site, you can make a videoclip and send it to a friend it is funny. RX8 has become my 2nd prefered car, the 1st is 350z logically lol

RX-8 dose have the kind of style nows generation would have. How fast can it really go with mods?

Drewb99 · Post by **Drewb99** » 13 Jun 2004, 05:31

I like the FD styling more than the overdone look of the RX8, IMO. It's simple and sleek, and not an overdone attempt at aggressiveness like the RX8. Then again, I think flip-up headlights are sexy, so don't mind me

I also haven't seen anything done performance-wise done to an RX& outside of maybe some struts.

Grez~Supra_RZ-S · Post by **Grez~Supra_RZ-S** » 13 Jun 2004, 10:29

Youre right, no one seems to tune RX8s...
But I know first hand how fast a 3rd gen RX7 can be

Gotta be the RX-8, they are just fantastic in looks and driving abilities (as I heard from a friend).
