The Z has lots of different trim options... the full Grand Touring or whatever is close to forty grand, while I don't know what the base costs (yeah less than S2000)
get an AP1 S2000, F20C FTW, then Z

Anyways, get the 350z. Engine flooding is too much of a hassle; the rotary in general. The Rx-8 wins a lot of those "Vs." competitions but the Z is just much more reliable.

for the same price you could a really good looking lexus is350 or mazdaspeed 6The Z out powers the 8 and the 8 out handles the Z. Both are nice cars, but the street price for an 8 may make it the winner if I were choosing between the two. I've seen new 8s as cheap as $23k and at that price, it's hard to pass up.

What a stupid post. The two cars considered are two door sports coupes. Use you're brain a little here and think about what's wrong with your suggestions.

However, stay away from the RX8. Coming from a previous owner, they are nothing but a headache. The positives do not out weigh the negatives.

The 350z is not that comfortable.
And people, please stop saying S2000. You know what, just make her test drive them both. I'm sick of these Vs. threads. They can just be resolved through a test drive.

I say go for the 350z. Drove my friends Rx8 and wasn't thrilled at all and felt Ridiculous when I had to get out of the back with those damn suicide doors.
As for the s2000: I was a service advisor at a honda dealership and drove quite a bit of them and loved them. Drove nice, look great, decent on gas & its a honda.
