You missed my edit above your post, but I have a different opinion on the RX8....lol. I just hope the 86 has more going for it than the RX8. I am not much of a low torque-high reving guy.
I love high revving fd might have v8s but how many have v8s in d1?
The whole world isn't America
And another thing is, yes the rx8 is slightly slowest than a mps3 in a straight line, but since it's not actually a drag car who really cares? It whoops it by seconds around tracks with a same driver. And that's stock, add a supercharger/turbo so both are same aspirated.. Well that's a different story

If this thing revs to let's say 8500 you cat compare it to a car that revs to let's say 6.. Yet they will both have top speed of around 100km/h in 2nd..
And mate this isn't a 350 big block revving to 5000 redline throug a 4speed top loader 6 speed gearbox and a high redline = awesome fun (again il compare a rotary to this, iv never had problems accelerating.)
