    Exactly, it would have been better without, rather than a half-job

    I can't, it is a mistake simple as that.

    My only other thought is that they are showing no interest in serving the needs of the UK, South African, Austalian, New Zealand drivers. To me, this suggests their main focus is on the North American market.

    What's innovative about it? They say it's innovative (twice) but I can't see anything new?

    RX-8 does have 2 doors (thankfully, as I wouldn't fancy the climb over the transmission tunnel!), the brake regeneration etc is going out onto other BMWs and MINIs, two tone body is done by smart.

    I suppose the innovative thing is that it's got one door, but that's more of a safety issue than innovative and I wouldn't be telling people about it! But how many people will buy it and only realise when they get it home it's only got a door on one side?
