narrowed down my choice of next car to the following:

Saab 9-3 aero
BMW 325i/330i sport saloon
Mazda rx8

Now re the mazda, has anyone any idea is there much real world difference between the 192 and the 231? i know the 192 revs to 7500 instead of 9000 and has slightly more torque, does it feel much slower than the 231?

Anyone bought the 192 over the 231? why? any reviews pitting one versus the other?

its going to be quicker than my bmw323ci anyway but id rather wait on the right 231 if its much better.

btw the price of these in the uk makes the irish market for the car look a joke!
 
for god sakes get the RX8 it's awsome. I think the differences between the two are mainly the chip. There is a 250hp version coming out if it is not out already.
 
Worth taking a look at the new tax bands for this car. I heard from a friend looking to own one that they are in a high group due to their high emissions.

This isn't something i've confirmed myself though
