Decisions, decisions

I currently have an '00 ITR which is a great car, but not a great daily driver. I think the S2000 would be significantly worse to drive everyday, unless, of course, you own a race track.

So, I am holding out until I can see the next Supra, which I'm pretty confident will be out soon. New 350Z is sharp and will be worth a look once the dealers get rid of the $5000 markup. RX-8 will also be worth a look, but I think it will be short on torque (same problem w/ the S2000 and my ITR).

Hurry up Toyota.

RX-8, because it should handle better than the Z (FirstDrive results are out from Edmunds, not much info though...), has 4 seats so its practical, and rumored to be loaded at 31k.

Can't complain about that, and the styling is pretty darn good.

350Z.

RX-8's not my thing(don't like the four doors),Would'nt buy a RSX(or any Honda for that matter)Cause' I don't like to follow the masses, S2000's motor's too much like a motorcycle for my taste, & I have no clue what the new Supra even looks like.
Peace.

The new RX-8 only has 131 torque.
Definitely 350Z

I wouldn't be holding my breath for the new Supra to come out. Nissan are just unveiling the new GT-R and it won't be out until 2005.
I doubt that Toyota would be in a possition to release a new Supra before then either.
Performance cars need a build up before they sell, not like your regular family cars that get unveiled and released the next month - they will sell anyway. It would be strongly against the trend for Toyota to unveil the new Supra less than a year before it's release IMO.

I would take the 350Z. It's out, there is an emergance in aftermarket parts for it and it's a halfway decent looking car. There will probably never be another Supra. If Toyota does come out with a new sports car it will be called the 5000GT or a variant of that. It probably will also be competitive with the R35 (scheduled for release in 2005) and will have roughly the same release date (probably within 6 months)
