Matt -- I was just about to bring up the RX8. The last comparison test done with it and several other conceivably better cars (think more horsepower/ higher price, etc), and the RX8 still came out on top. This is against Porsche, Ferrari, Dodge Viper, to name a few.
That was about the fourth comparison test where the RX8 beat all comers in the sports car genre.
The two "issues" people have with the RX8, though, is gas mileage and lack of torque.
Then again when is a true sports car supposed to get good mileage and have torque when its engine's true nature is to rev to 9,000 RPM?
