Haha the smoothness is probably the only thing ill miss. If i get the Z i wont miss the looks but with the evo i think the looks with be missed.

I've driven both but I did not own them. Personally I believe the two cars are in different class. The I would miss about the rx-8 will be the exterior/interior design and maybe the RWD. The Evo's interior is ridiculous. The good thing about the Evo is the power, real backseats, and, depends on where you live, 4WD.

But just take the 370z, you won't regret it.

Ive posted this thread on the evo x forum as well. Trying to get inputs from both sides.

The way i see it right now:

Evo X if i want power and attract dicks

Nismo 370z if i want a sexy coupe and attract chicks

If only the z came boosted it wouldnt even hesistate. I want something with boost but nothing comes boosted with the looks and handling i want .. of course except the GTR

IMHO, the evo x is a bada$$ looking car. I like it. If done it right it's so sexy.

But I admit the 370z is a better looking car. I've got countless compliments on the car from all ages. BOTH girls and guys take pictures of my car makes me thinking of a new bussiness.

Sometimes I fell this car just gets too much attentions...

As far as the performence and mod friendly. Evo x is not much faster than the 370 stock to stock. It might feel faster because of the turbo. But yes, evo will gain more power from the bolt-ons compare to the 370. Thus the mods on Evo is cheaper under 500whp. That said, if you want anything beyond 500whp, both Evo X and 370 are expensive.
