My guess is it should be similar to the new Z...starting from hi 20's and the normal/higher trim in mid to hi 30's...

Damn mid to hi 30's for higher trim. That's one nice looking car though! I was going to ask the same question about it. Hum... 250hp 12RPM n/s RWD... damn... what a car.. not to mention that it looks nice.. did I mention it looks nice?

Saw an RX8 not too long ago with 6 12"s in the backseat. Not sure on the amp but it was pretty nice. I'm not a system person at all. Speed comes before sounds.

If you drove a manual you wouldn't have to worry about the 90/10 split ...

RX-8s are too ugly for me. I pretty much don't like everything about it...
the four doors, the seats, and the fact that it looks like an S2000.

Come on do you really think this looks good?

IMO someone beat that thing with a ugly pole! At the very least, it's one of the uglier cars I've seen in recent memory.

And the new Skyline... I mean what were they thinking?

The FD-3S RX-7 (93-95) is always within the top three best looking cars I have seen...but the RX-8 just won't do it for me...
