Yep, just saw that on the listings.  He\'d better rate it higher than the 350Z!!

Just been reading Performance Jap mag also, nice article Clive.

I also cannot wait - they\'re testing the new RX3!  Honest, thats what the website says:



"James May puts the new Alfa Romeo 166 through its paces and
                   Richard Hammond looks at some classic cars in waiting with the
                   Mercedes 190E and the VW Corrado. Meanwhile Clarkson takes
                   Mazda\'s latest sports coupe, the Wankel Rotary powered RX3, to the
                   limits on Top Gear\'s Test Track. And this week\'s Star In A Reasonably
                   Priced Car is Pop Idol\'s Simon Cowell."

My word.  That was a great review the top gear people gave it, much to my surprise.

It did look a bit odd on track though.

Blimey what a blooming excellent review!!!!! but then I do remember he really did like the 3rd Gen RX7 even though he couldn\'t fit in one !

When they brought the Nissan on l thought NO please don\'t rate it against that as the same type of car but they still rated it excellently against our 8.

Mazda will be over the moon about tonight because it WILL sell more cars for them.

Dear Clive,
Thank you for the reminder. Quoth the Clarkson-" this car is sensational"................and......" of all the cars I have driven this year-this is the best!" Perhaps the club should grant him honorary membership!  I am even prepared to take back some of the things that I have said about the Clarkson ( on second thoughts- that is going a bit too far)..........though he did echo my own doubts about the rear of the RX-8......a somewhat dynamic free-zone............unlike the front.
It was however distressing to witness him ragging the car around the circuit like a maniac-the car does not deserve that.
This feature tonight will have done the sales of the car no harm.
Regards,
fdman

Anyone knows if this shows again during week?

only caught last 10 mins, cant believe that toyota truck was still running

[Martiny]

WOW! Wow! Wow!  That was bleeding fantastic! I , personally, L*OV*E*D seeing it go round the track. I was jumping up and down and shouting in my lounge, I only wish it was ME driving!

My neighbours must think Ive finally gone over the edge.

I was shouting - "I WANT ONE, I WANT ONE!" .  

Golly, Im so glad for Mazda, lets see RX-8s  all over our roads. The more Rotaries, the better, I say.

Wow! ( did I say that already?)

[J4P RX]

I know of someone who captures it every week so hopefully it will be online tomorrow night.

Will post a link if i find it

I want a Toyota Truck :rollin

that was one of the best top gears for ages. the rx8 looked very at home on his track. it looked like you could control whatever angle you want with the throttle

what a great car.

anyone do interest free loans

couldnt belive that truck
