I think you need to decide what it is you are looking for in a car(ie. torque, handling, looks,...). I have spent a lot of time in my bros RX-8 and like it alot. We actually took it to TRack Day #11. It ran 15.2 @ 90 bone stock. Slow compared to my Camaro but it is not supposed to be a drag car. But honestly, most of the cars in your list aren't drag cars. The awd turbos will do well there, but that is not the manufacturers intitial intentions. I personally like the G35 coupe best on your list. My buddy at work has a black one with 19s, 298 hp, 6 spd and besides no boost it is sweet. Have fun in your search and keep us posted.
