    Thanks for the advise guys...today I went and test drove both...I drove and auto and manual of both and despite more horses the tsx feels faster in both trans. I like the gauges in the rx-8 as well as the paddle shifters, but the tsx seemed more grown up...and where I should be, lol both good cars though. Anything else I should consider? I like how the new 07 Altima looks.

    TSX, 6 spd, swap in RSX Type-S heads, boost it, call it a day.

    Honestly, I'd rather have Honda reliability over the RX-8 anyday of the week. Not to mention, if you're after comfort and cruising around with 3-4 other ppl with you, then the TSX hands down.

    Look around on Honda-Tech in the TSX forum and you'll see some hot TSXs in there.

    Yeah I looked at the G35 coupe...but the insurance is too high for me, lol...it's considered a two-door sports car..while the Rx-8 is considered a 4-door sport, and the tsx is just a regular sedan.
