I drive both and let me tell u...these are great cars

 

If it's only G35 and RX-8 i'd go with G35.
I really dislike how RX-8 looks

 

Aftermarket support will be much larger for the VQ engine in the G35 coupe/sedan/350 Z. Mainly because it has a history and a much larger market share. Also it will be used in an every increasing line of cars. The rotary is a RX sportscar only engine.

The G35 coupe is damn good looking too. the RX-8 is just awkward from some angles.

The Infiniti dealer experience is worth something also.

 

G35 with AWD

 

G35 > RX8

 

What is this EVO owners only stuff?
The Rx8 has a 50/50 weight distribution & weighs about 400 pounds less. It depends on how you drive. If you like the twisties get the RX8. If you like to ride in style get the G.

 

Hopefully the ecu hiccups will be fixed and the RX-8 will have the power and engine characteristics that was intended...

 

G35 any day of the week....**** is quick...

 

G35 all the way. They don't look to cool on stock rims but if you put some 20 in Maya's on it they look cool.

 

The poll (and a few others) were cross-posted on this and some other sites to see how the different car owners involved in the poll felt. However, this thread was started months ago, so its game for all now.

 

g35 i just saw a rx-8 on the road today. it had its moonroof up. looked like a catapult on his car. why are they angled so high? our evo's arent like that right? i hope.

 

300zx or RX7?

 

That's easy. FD rex-7, baby!

 

I'm with Savedsol on this one. I would never get the G35 because I would rather have the 350Z.

The following are RE Amemiya cars. As a reminder, RE Amemiya is the maker of the RE Super G RX-7.



Serious stuff.

 

RX8 is not all it is cracked up to be.....I test drove one a few weeks ago and was thoroughly NOT impressed......doesn't feel fast, too refined, plus the rotary engine sounds weird. Handles nice and looks hot but that's about it.....plus hp claims from mazda have been a little higher than actual output.......granted the G35 is more of a luxery sports coupe, but it has the vq engine so it very tunable! I believe Nissan is going to switch all their 3.5L v6's to 4.0L in 2005, at least that was the word on my350z.com. Also, the AWD G35 just came out....ATTESA all the way......however, in an article about the mazdaspeed RX8, they stiffened up the suspension like nobody's business, perhaps hinting toward the future release of an RX8 with some real power!!!!!.........either way, IMO G35 is much better car than RX8
