So, I have 10g's... and I want AWD... Subaru or Audi???

it certainly isnt BS. the RX8 isn't your average car. the drivetrain is feather light, thus mazda was able to put a bit more into the body itself. the majority of cheap, econobox japanese cars are tin cans. i've owned several of them.

yeah, and it still weighs 400lbs less than the wrx. :headscrat and the car is stiffer even though it has no b-pillars. it's a function of better design. mazda didn't need awd to make the car handle. ;)

That's a function of them being cheap piece of shit econoboxes, not of being lightweight.

in the weight department, you cannot compare the two. the wrx has 4 doors, cylinders and an awd system. its obviously going to be heavier.
apples to oranges.

i do however agree that RWD > AWD. :D

the stickers on the rear windows say, "quattro ist fur sissies."
all you need is a set of snows, and a brain between your ears.
oh, 3 pedals and an LSD dont hurt though.

I'm diggin that M3, but it's got 129K or something like that and it's over 9grand! I'd almost be starting off where I was when I bought the Audi, and it's the same year as the Audi..
