Yeah, RX7. I've raced a couple RX7's. By 100mph they usually have about 2 lengths on me.

Actually, we are fairly even with them before 80 or 90mph. The RX7 has a great top end, and will pull decently on an S2k in stock form on the high end.

looks is all opinion. In MY opinion i think the rx7 looks better (im not saying s2ks are ugly, just that the rx7 to me looks better). and basing it on top speed is lame. it takes a long time to get to top speed.
