So, you don't like the RX8 because it didn't have enough power? Ummm, OK. I'll bite. What qualifies as your benchmark for 'enough'? If it's all about straight line performance to you, then no, that's not what the RX8 was about either.

I could spin the rears all day long in that car. No other car under $50k could touch it's handling.

So please, qualify what you mean when the RX8 didn't have enough power. What was one specifically not able to do in the RX8 that cars around the same price point could? (Keeping in mind, no other car handles like the RX8 under $50k).

I was hoping for ( and this is just my WISHES ) that it had about 332 bhp, comparable to horsepower of the 370z, G37, and Genesis. Mix that with superb handling and that will be a great car to match the looks. I love the looks of the BRZ.
