I test drove a 2010 RX-8 R3 a few years back. I had a blast. The R3 package was pretty legit, but like most, it really need more power. Mazda should have turbo'd that from the start. Especially since the gas mileage was already bad, what would it matter if it gets worse? Heck, it may have gotten better with the extra torque. Those seats... Felt like I was being hugged by a bear and I'm 5'6 150lbs. Got close to buying it, but I held out. The Z was the better choice. Thinking about it, I may have to replace my seats just to get that snug feeling again.
