Mazda RX-8 Review - Japanese Rocket Ship with Turbine Smooth Rotary Rating: by Gary Chan "Even the smallest, lightest car that Volvo makes is still a solid, safe and reassuring machine in the most dangerous of driving conditions." | |
Driving Impressions: Mazda RX-8 40th Anniversary Edition Rating: by Derek Mau "Running strictly with a “straight-from-the-factory” setup and premium grade fuel, the RX-8 showed its made of the right stuff by keeping up and chasing down other cars that had stickier rubber and more aftermarket modifications. With a 50/50 front/rear weight balance, a set of sticky and highly predictable Bridgestone Potenzas, the RX-8 was downright fun blazing through the turns around Mazda Raceway." | |
