Default RX-8 or 350 Z

I figured the WRX/SRT-4 post was beat to death so maybe folks would like to argue about the RX-8 and the 350Z! As an add-on I always liked the RX-7's but the motor was prone to problems.

Dudes.... This is AUDI FORUMS......................... Go to a Nissan Forums or Mazda Forums if you want that stuff. Sorry to be a dick, but these kind of posts should at least go into off topic.

I've belonged to a lot of forums over the years and never has one ONLY talked about their brand. So no I won't go to a Mazda or Nissian forum, I'm guessing if members here have any interest in cars as a whole they are slightly aware of what non-Audi's are in the streets next to them. You are right that it would be best served in the off topic as I worded it so let me make it relevant to the A4 forum.

So how do you compare the RX-8 and 350Z to the 1.8T A4? I drove the RX-8 and found it to be lacking in the power department, despite the 238hp it felt sluggish, plus no power down low.

I think it will be really hard for you to find a people who drive either of them in a "AUDI" forum.

Can you think about possibilities before you starting the topic ?

I did not drive neither of them, so no comment.

I like the Z's muffler sound.

That's besides the point. Fact of the matter is you are posting a car comparison having nothing to do with an Audi A4 in the "A4" forum! Post it in "Off Topic" where it belongs!

EDIT: ok so I see at the end you made it relevant to the "A4" forum, but think about that in the first place.

You don't have to currently drive one to comment. I've owned 12 cars since I started driving 10 years ago, all different makes. I moddified and raced nearly all of them. I never owned a RX-8 or 350 but have driven both. A lot of members on this forum hate all other cars as much as the Honda forum folks I knew hated Mustangs! The general comment is that all other cars are "crap". Well my Subaru didn't have half the problems that my, my fiancee's, my step mothers, or my father's Audi have had. I still love Audi but really folks we're driving VW's! People need to get over the Audi only concept! I posted this here originally to spur conversation like the WRX vs SRT-4 post did. I guess everyone here is content only talking about chipping their 1.8T.
