Hey i am a valet driver in cleveland and i work for a nice hotel , all kind of nice cars around there for me to park and drive . So last weel i had the chance to drive an RX-8 and yes it has some power, the owner told me thet he kept up with a 96 vette. The car is just awsome inside, but one thing sucks it has no torque at really low rpm. But hey those cars weren't made for low rpm.
I had the chance to drive a honda 2000, and if i was to pick one i would pick the mazda.
PS: i drive all kinds of nice **** and the best is... i am geting payed to do so. :p

Let me tell you, as I was rounding the rose garden to the VIP parking lot at 7mph I could just feel the torquiness of the rotary and the smoothness of the suspension. Coming up to the speed bump I punched the gas and hit a whopping 2000rpm with ease and powered my way over that speed bump... 
That would be pretty cool to be able to drive cars around all day and get paid to do so.

Re: therx-8
Man believe it or not , there is no rose garden around where i work. Yah it is true i don't pick up much speed but i put the pedal to the floor and keep it there on a one way street and a huge parking garage which both are mostly empty. Trust me speeding in an empty parking garage with some rich guys corvette leaves a lasting impresion. Unfortunately i haven't gotten to drive an rx-7 yet.
Some advice: u better tip the valet guy before u give him your car.lol.
