    Question DC5 Type R vs RX8

    hey guys just need your opinion,
    as the title suggests its between the dc5 R and the Rx8 ( i know its a honda forum but biasedness aside which would u prefer )
    to me
    the Dc5 has good handling, looks ( exterior ) better fuel economy and i would think better reliability compared to the rotary and better resale value ( however i tend to keep the car for a few years )
    the rx8 looks good, great interior , more practical, rear wheel drive
    i want it for a daily driver what i want in a car would be good performance and handling, nice exterior, bit of sofistication and luxury for the interior as its a daily, and the usual fuel economy reliability etc
    they both cost about the same, the dc5 has less power 147kw but is about 200 kg lighter but the rx8 has 177kw
    as i have said both have their strong points but the Dc5 is lacking in the interior and practicality department compared to the rx8 IMO but the rx8 SUCKS with fuel economy around 380km/ tank (61L)
    So which of these two would you pick if u were in my situation ( biasedness aside ) and please just between these two cars
    - btw which of these would have better performance, handling and aftermarket support
    cheers guys much appreciated
