I also used to have an RX8, 230 hp model in titanium grey! Even spent a grand getting a set of OZ alloys for it the wek after i bought it, that i never even put on!!!
I agree with sercombe, it was a fantastic car but the fuel costs were shocking, I once filled the tank( bout £60) then done 170 miles bedfore the fuel light came on!!!!
I thought there was something wrong with it!! That was driving a little spirited, byt even still its really bad!
A I also agree with the terrible customer service, from about a month after i bought the car from a Mazda dealer it started to make a horrible grinding noise from the rear brakes every time they got hot! The car went to Mazda no less than 6 times, they would do something that made the noise stop for bout 2-3 weeks then it would start again!
They could give no explanation and said I would just need to clean the brakes out every couple of weeks!!!!!!!
Had it bout 6 mths and got sick of it, lost bout 3k on the car by the time i sold!
