Nissan 350Z vs. Mazda RX-8: The winner is... RX-8!

    Hallo,


    damit es nicht heißt, ich würde immer nur Threads mit Probs starten, hier mal etwas Erfreuliches:


    Einen (nicht ganz neuen, aber hier im Forum noch nicht erwähnten) recht ausführlichen Vergleichstest über 6 Seiten von http://www.edmunds.com aus Amiland findet Ihr


    hier


    Auf der linken Seite kann man unter "Navigation" durch die Seiten blättern.



    Der 8 ist Sieger, das liest sich dann so:


    "With its lightweight feel, incredibly smooth power delivery and stylish cabin, the RX-8 offers a combination of performance and comfort that few sports cars can match. Its personality doesn't overwhelm you at first, but spend any amount of time behind the wheel and the value of proper balance, minimal weight and a precisely tuned suspension become immediately obvious. If the RX-8 represents the future of the sports car, we can't wait to see what's next."


    Dem ist nichts hinzuzufügen - viel Spaß beim Lesen wünscht

    Wie schön - und das gegen starke Konkurrenz, steht doch unter der gleichen Homepage das folgende:



    Most Significant Vehicle of the Year: Nissan's 350Z

    As with last year, our readers agreed with us on the Most Significant Vehicle of the Year. But unlike last year, the voting was close! Nissan's 350Z barely edged out the Infiniti G35 (coupe and sedan) by 12 votes! Yes, it was close, but don't expect a six-week ordeal to get this sorted out. The Supreme Court (our editorial staff) has ruled and no ballot tampering investigations or proxy votes will be considered at this point. Of course, many people consider the G35 (especially the coupe) and the Nissan 350Z almost the same car, and in fact many votes were written as "Nissan 350Z/Infiniti G35 coupe" or something similar. These votes were thrown out since they effectively offset each other, but if some of you fence-sitters could have committed to the G35 we might have had an upset.


    Oddly enough, third place was also separated by 12 votes (though total numbers were much lower), with Mazda's 6 eking past the Infiniti FX35/45 for a podium spot. Another strong contender was Honda's Element, with only 20 fewer votes than the FX. No matter how you slice it, everyone obviously likes Nissan's new "FM" platform and the cars residing on it.


    Also repeated this year were plenty of votes for cars not eligible due to their 2004 model status. Examples included the Mazda RX-8, Cadillac XLR and Volkswagen Touareg. Remember, only 2003 models were eligible this time around. You folks can vote for the Mazda, Caddy and VW next time (assuming there aren't some 2005 models out by then that you like better and you, once again, jump the gun).

    ... und im letzten Absatz kommt ja auch unser Schätzelchen wieder zu Ehren, der ja für 2003 gar nicht in die Wertung kommen konnte!


    Danke an Sun King,
