Id have the alpha any day over the others. Not just because of the extra BHP. but it looks so much better. Dont get me wrong I like the lexus, but im not too keen on the RX8

Alpha does look nice but I would have the RX8, due to reliability issues of the Alpha all nice cars though.

yeah think my dad wants the alpha as well.

and the reliability issue apparently the mazdas are hard to get fixed because they have a rotary engine.

personally i would keep the lexus because my dad had one in that blue but it was an IS200 SPORT and before that one he had a silver one.

Currently he has the new IS250 SPORT in black and it is fast and rides good.

He has also put a deposite down for the new Lexus I-SF which is coming out next year. For him it is the perfect car and he can't find on better
