2005 mazda rx 8 or 2005 pontiac gto?

Question

If you had to choose between the two, which would you buy?

i like both cars alot but i really cant decide on which one i want to get. im looking for a fast car because i got the need for speed so the gto is very fast at 400 hp compared to the 238 hp of the rx8 but im also looking for overall looks as the rx8 looks better both from the outside and inside and especially with the suicide rear doors.

so help me decide, which do you think is better overall and why?

thanks alot

Answer 1

I worked for Mazda and replaced plenty of motors The LS-2 motor is strong and much more dependable. The RX-8 gets around because it weighs so little. The GTO is heavy 3,800 pounds compaired with 2,400 RX. My 2006 GTO flys under the radar even though it is Spice Red It looks like a Grand Am I guess. Holden Made a really good car 13,000 miles and not one warranty problem. My GTO is a six speed with SLP Predatior reprogrammer GMM ripshift gear shifter SLP lould mouth #1 exhaust K&N intake and bigger sway bars. And the brakes at the road racing track are the right size for hot lapping. As for those RX doors they may allow small childern into the back seat you will never use but to throw your lap top in the back seat. I have carried people in my back seat 4 times in 13,000 miles hey there is a ac vent back there. 6 foot tall and 52 years old I don't craw back there often.

Answer 2

i could decide for the R X 8 because of the fact these days Pontiac's autos have not been very sturdy and their GTO pisses me off because of the fact it looks no longer something like the unique GTO. They base the seem from an Italian vehicle(what the hell? base it from the GTO or call the motor vehicle by using yet another call).

Answer 3

u got to live with it... i love gto power and sound..but it looks like a family sedan...like a grand am of other crappy pontiac...rx will stop better and courner better...gas miliage about the same...rx not so hot. red rx looks nice.

Answer 4

GTO. Fast, rear seats, more realiable, more power, sounds better with exhaust
