Untrue. I track my RX-8 regularly with minimal mods (brakes, wheels, tires) and it is completely composed at speeds well in excess of 110.

This one made me chuckle. I've belonged to that forum for years and the vast majority are as loyal to their cars as are the people over here. The 370Z is not superior to the RX in "every" way. It is superior to the RX in several significant ways. There are few absolutes in life.

I apologize for that misunderstanding..I read that in an automotive forum not an RX8 forum...but in that forum a bunch of them were going "if the 370z came out sooner" and "seems like I will go for the 370z as a next car" I meant no negative aspect about the car..I usually get heated when people make false accusations...not sure if you have had some serious seat time in a 370z or G37..but in those cars its cake to drive them at higher speeds...the RX8 takes a bit longer to a hundred..though I love the handling of both the RX8 and the S2000..they just dont do it for me with the lack of torque and power..
Im sorry if I came up a lil aggressive but if the OP comes in here and as his first post he says "test drove the Z...didnt feel that fast at all...Cayman S is awesomezzz"...then he should buy a cayman S instead of ranting about how the Z was a letdown at actual Z owners or how awesome a discontinued s2000 felt or how great a used 45k car felt..
