The Mazda RX8 is a sports car manufactured by Mazda Motor Corporation. It first appeared in 2001 at the North American International Auto Show. It is the successor to the RX-7 and like its predecessors in the RX range, it is driven by a rotary engine. The RX-8 began North American sales in the model year 2004.
Mazda rotary engine vehicles introduced in the U.S. in 1971, beginning with the R100, followed by the RX-2 RX-3 RX-4 RX-5, and then three generations of RX-7 sports car. However, the lack of creature comfort and ease of use, with the high price and a declining interest in sports cars and coupes coupled at this time, go with the Mazda RX-7 from most major markets except Japan. After 1995 Mazda suffered from a relatively insignificant product line in the U.S. save the MX-5 Miata.

The Ferrari F40 is a mid-engine, rear-wheel drive, two-door coupé sports car produced by Ferrari from 1987 to 1992 as the successor to the Ferrari 288 GTO. From 1987 to 1989 it held the title as the world’s fastest street-legal production car, and during its years of production, was Ferrari’s fastest, most powerful, and most expensive car. The car had no traction control, and was one of the few to utilize turbochargers.
The car debuted with a factory suggested retail price of approximately US$400,000, although some buyers were reported as paying as much as US$1.6 million. A total of 1,315 F40s were produced.
Power came from an enlarged, 2.9 L (2936 cc) version of the GTO’s twin IHI turbocharged V8 developing 478 PS (352 kW; 471 hp) under 110 kPa (16 psi) of boost. The F40 did without a catalytic converter until 1990 when US regulations made them a requirement for emissions control reasons. The flanking exhaust pipes guide exhaust gases from each bank of cylinders while the central pipe guides gases released from the wastegate of the turbochargers.
