    If the C6 still has the heads-up display the C5 came with, that wins. Never have to take your eyes off the road. But I've always liked the layout of the RX8's dash. Tach dead center and brought out a bit from the rest, 7500 RPM (when the shift light and beep come on) are straight up, and a digital speedo, so there's no guess work on your speed.

    911. Never driven a 911, but I'd imagine that the seats would hold you better than a C6 would while taking a tight corner at high speeds.

    actually, that is one think that roadtestes always say about porsche, they DON'T have very good bolstering, seats are kinda flat, all the same...

    Never heard that about 911's. And all the reviews I've read of the new 911's glorify the seating. I think...you made....that up.

    You've got to be kidding. The 2006 Eclipse sucks all-around.

    I dunno, 'What', the eclipse looks pretty good, interiorly, anyway, the exterior is just ugly.

    Besides, it's a direct competitor to the new Mustang GT, and if you ask me, almost a better car. FWD with MIVEC that hits 60 in 5.8. With the 2rd shift coming at 57mph. If it was 61, then the the time would be much quicker. Oh yeah, and the eclipse is cheaper. It's a good performance buy.

    I can't say which of the 2 has a better seating position because I have only sat in the Porsche. (the danm C6 was locked at the autoshow) But I like the Porsches interior more just judging by pictures. The HUD on the porsceh looks so cool!

    nope...click

    oh so aggressive...

    does have some nice side bolstering though, also, you said the new, i havent read anything outstanding about the 997, but nothing opposing it, previously, the c6 bolstering would swallow you, the 911 would not

    what, have you been on ABSforums, seem farmiliar
