I've owned 2 RX8s. Had an EVO X in between that I just couldn't get along with. The RX8 is a higher quality car but agree, it's old. I love that engine despite it requiring more and different maintenance. So smooth everything else I've owned feels like it runs on sand. Double wishbone up front and extremely high torsional rigidity. They're geared fairly tall is my only real complaint. The R3 is an overlooked gem and I'd rather have an RX8 than an AP1 or AP2 by a mile. Even just for the much better steering feel. I wrote this on the forum somewhere else but the increased rigidity of the 2nd gen Twins reminded me of my Rx8s. I'd take an RX8 over a Gen 1 but for availability of parts, the newness factor, the nice characteristics of the FA24, I'd take my '22 BRZ over my RX8s.
