Currently drive a Honda S2000 - but not using it as much as I used to and fancy a change. Also fancy something abit cheaper to save some cash.
Thinking of an RX-8, or a 330ci or something but not really sure on any other ideas.
Insurance isnt a huge issue, most things cheaper than the s2k. Fuel not an issue. Space not an issue.
Needs to be good fun to drive, and "feel" fast.

Having drove all 3 mentioned above...I would say the s2k is the most exciting.
Infact when i shift the s3, ill be looking for a clean s2000.

It depends what you want, i have an S2000 but i've had a number of other cars of all similar pace. I don't think you'll find a better drivers car in all honesty. However, i defo wouldn't be going for an RX-8, 330ci are quick but i doubt theyd be much fun as such

The RX-8 isn't all that, drove one and seemed quite boring IMO, only fun when the tc is off and they spin quite easily

I'm after a change but love the looks of my car too much 
I'm currently keen on the Mazda 6 MPS, but they're not the best looking car.

330 is a cruiser not a racer really.
What do you want from a car?!
Driver enjoyment?
Speed?
Refinement?
Looks?
