It’s funny that you say that, since the 350Z gets about the same mileage as a corvette: City 350Z - 20mpg C5 - 19mpg RX-8 - 18mpg Highway 350Z - 26mpg C5 - 28mpg RX-8 - 24mpg Gas mileage is not a reason to skip a v8. ---

> [@77rednecktruck](#): > > nissan\>mazda > > 350\>rx8 I’d take a 3rd gen RX-7 over a 300ZX. I will agree that Nissan has more awesome products than Mazda. But Mazda’s crown jewel is the RX-7. [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/rx8-vs-350z/181565.md?page=1)
