Picnic table on a rx7?!?!

nasty

2004 Mazda rx8 is niiiice :D
On Sale: June/July 2003
Expected Pricing: Less than $37,000






The RX-8 will use a new, normally aspirated version of the rotary engine rated at 250 horsepower; the proposed engine is 30 percent lighter and smaller than the engine used in the RX-7. Unlike the third-generation RX-7, the RX-8 will not be turbocharged, making its engine less costly. Mazda hasn't decided on a price for the RX-8, but the company pledges that is will be less than the $37,000 price tag on the RX-7 when it last sold in this country.

Poor fuel economy and high levels of exhaust pollution have been challenges for the rotary engine in the past, but the RX-8 rotary engine features a new design that Mazda says will boost economy and clean up emissions. The redesigned engine will also feature a sporty low-pitched exhaust rumble, instead of the rotary engine's more typical high-pitched drone, Mazda executives said.

As before, the compact engine is mounted in the front of the car, but behind the front axle, to provide perfect 50/50 front/rear weight distribution for ideal handling characteristics. A new oil pan, half as deep as the sump on the RX-7, allows the engine to sit lower in the car, contributing to a lower center of gravity for better handling. A six-speed gearbox transmits power to the rear wheels, adding to the RX-8's sports car credentials

mazda has a history of marking up the horsepower of their cars. the miata is one example. in the article yu have posted, the hp rating is 250, when in reality, it's a lot less. people have bought the car and dyno tested for power to prove the people at mazda to be liars. mazda has, now, relized their faults and offers cashback and buy-back offers for the cheated. mazda claims for the rx-8 to have 238 hp now.

if i had the choice, i'd buy a 6 over the rx-8, also. but, damn. the rx-8 has a 50/50 front/back weight distribution. that's to die for. i just can't stand the way the 8 looks.
