I also test drove a RX8. There are three different models and to get the handling and performance you have to buy the top of the line or you get a dull sports car. The RX8 doesn't ride as nice and the interior is claustrophobic even with the extra room in the back. The Crossfire has the looks and options all in one package (the 2004 model). To get the same in a 2005 you have to buy the Limited.
