7.5s 0-100 km/h is not good acceleration
Thats hugely misleading. I tought that to at first. Truth is, 0-100 comes down alot due to torque, wich is pretty low in wankel rotary cars.
However, once you get past 20kmh and in the revs, then this thing pulls up VERY quickly. And this is generally the case why 0-100kmh isnt neccecarely a good measurement.Top gear presentators said that often aswel.
Basically, when i'm starting at a green light, some audi's pull off quicker. but once i get revvs, my 20-180kmh acceleration blasts them to kingdom come

Btw, that 7 second figure is wrong. There are 3 rx8 models
regular 190hp one
renesis revolution 190 hp one
renesis revolution 230hp one
7 seconds is the regular model.
both revolutions, clock in at 6.3 seconds. The main difference between both is that the 230hp one has extra breathing ports in the engine, wich allows it to revv to 9500 instead of 8400, and breathes the engine better at higher speeds.
This only starts to make a difference past ~140 kmh
