      ⚠ Poll May Switch Choices

      Welcome to This or That; Where I choose 2 vehicles (but probably can't afford) and you choose which one you'd rather have with the poll.
      You can explain your choice below, or not.

      Last time we had 2 small 4x4. It would be the Fiat Panda over the Suzuki Samurai, 26 : 16


      Sportscars on a budget today.

      First up is a Velocity Red 2011 Mazda RX-8 R3. It has a Naturally Aspirated 1.3L 2-Rotor (Renesis) Engine with 232hp, 6-Speed Manual Transmission and RWD. Inside is a Black Interior with Recaro Sport Seats, AC, Retrofitted Alpine Infotainment and Bose Sound System.

      A bit too high strung?

      It’s up against a Quicksilver 2004 Pontiac GTO. It has a Naturally Aspirated 5.7L [LS1] Engine with 350hp, 6-Speed Manual Transmission and RWD. Inside is a Black Interior with Leather Sport Seats, AC, and Blaupunkt AM/FM/CD Player.

        @Exage03040 I have only driven the RX-8 and while I love the styling the engine is a huge let down. I'd rather V8.

        And you may ask yourself, "Where does that highway go to?"

                Monaro for me, as well.

                Generally just sh*treplying to things.

                  GTO because LS, and because Renesis is junk.

                    While it’s quite a bit slower, I like the novelty of the RX8 and high revving motor… so that gets my vote

                      I can't afford to keep the RX8 on the road, so it's the Pontiac for me.

                        The RX-8 is priced about right for down here in Oz. However, that Monaro is sitting at about 25% of what they are pulling in down here....so...not budget.

                        Approaching hedges arse first...for quite some time
