Which is a better sports car 2007 Nissan 350Z or 2007 Mazda RX-8 you say the Z your bud says the 8?

Answer 1

depends what you call better

the Mazda will outrun the z

however if you live where it gets colder you might want to go witht he z like i did

the Mazda 8 uses a rotary engine

rotary engines don't like the cold much and tend not to run as well in colder weather

----------------------

07MT 350z rwhp - 265/230tq

07MT RX-8 BRAKE HP- 232/159tq

I don't believe at all the RX8 will outrun the 350z. Even though the 8 weighs 400lbs lighter than the 350z, 0-60 times will tell.

350z - 5.2 seconds

RX8 - 6.1 seconds

And if you plan on driving in the snow, the Z will not do well unless you have sandbags and full blown snow tires. I cannot say about the RX8.

Both roughly the same price, I'd say go with the Z.
