I'm curious about the price you got them for. Doesn't matter if you car is a demo car, 04-08, 09+ etc etc. As long as you purchased it recently.

List location, price, year, package and mileage. Also include where you brought it from (Mazda dealer, other dealers, private, etc) and when you brought the RX8


This should give us a good idea on what the value of the RX8 is as time goes on.

 

i paid 22,000 dollars for base 2007 automatic mazda rx-8 back in august 2007

 

I just signed papers on a brand new 2007 GT for 26,400.

 

where did you find out 09 RX8 is going to come out end of this month or next month? D:

 

[QUOTE=SayNoToPistons;2461145] I'm pretty sure now they should be letting them go to make space for the revised 2009 RX8. If you brought your RX8 from the dealers recently, I'm curious about the price you got them for. QUOTE]

Two dealers in L.A. today with adds that state all 2008 RX-8 in stock $6,000 off.
This includes to $3,000 rebate plus $3,000 dealer price reduction.

 

[QUOTE=Zoom49;2467785]Sounds like a reasonable deal. Note that rebates MAY be regional, and that they may differ in your state. Also note that since there is less then $3k in markup on base models(including holdback) that ther is likely to be overpriced add-ons on such vehicles if any are in stock.

The best way to find a good deal in your location would be to go on edmunds.com, fill out a price quote request and have 4-5 internet salespeopel fight for the best deal.

 

Thats how I got mine. I got a 2007 Touring last December for $25k. Probably could have gotten a few bucks off that but I didn't bother. Looking back on it, maybe I should have picked up the base model that I got quoted $21k for instead. $4,000 for a sunroof hmmmmm.....

 

Don't forget traction control I don't think that comes on the base either.

 

A week ago I purchased a new (54 miles) 2008 Brilliant Black RX-8 Grand Touring for $24,999 (sticker was close to $32K). They were aggressive on the price because it was month-end quota time, and of course the 8s' gas mileage isn't great (but I don't care since I can afford the gas). :D If you're in the San Francisco Bay Area you should purchase from the same dealer I did (see pics of the car in the Brilliant Black photo forum - they still have the dealer advertising plates).

 

I know a few people in the car business, and that's not necessarily the best time to buy. You want to time yourself with thier financial reports. Dealers sell the most cars on the weekend and are prepared to go lower on the weekend than the weekday. Dealers also want to get rid of cars for the quarterly report. So the best time to buy a car is on the last weekend in the last month of the quarter. Since it's June, the next 2 weekends are great times to buy low.

 

I bought an '04 RX8 grand touring with 6mt and 41k miles for $12,500.....can anyone beat that deal. The car is flawless, I got it from a Honda/Volvo used lot.

 

wow. 12500! i know it's an 04, but still, that's CHEAP!

great dea!! mileage is not too bad for an 04 either!!

the fact that it was a honda/volvo lot probably helped. a car dealer friend once told me that you get the best deals on trades to dealers that do NOT sell THAT car. the volvo/honda guys took that in trade, and just want to dump it. they made some money on the sale of whatever else they sold that guy, and now the RX8 was to them, a liability..and if it sits long enough, they'll just dump it at what they paid (the low trade screw over price the paid) and you basically get it dirt cheap.

nice find.

 

a dealer just offered me around 21.5 for a base model 6mt. i guess that's about 6k off which seems pretty good

 

Best deal we've seen on a brand new, older model year RX-8 from a Mazda dealer was $17,500 for a 2007 MT Sport (without any options) in Feb 2008 was $17,500. But that deal was contingent upon using Ford financing at 6.9%.

BTW, I got my used (9,800 miles) 2006 MT Sport with Performance Package in March of 2008 from a Nissan dealer for $17,525. Could have done better if I wasn't so picky about Phantom Blue and exactly this option package and nothing else.

 

small world. i bought a '08 brilliant black Sport from the same guys for about 20500 in the last week of june (new, 18 mi)

 

i got a 04 winning blue 6mt with 23,835 miles for 16,409 after taxes and title.

 

paid cash my 04 with 40k miles $14,100 including taxes

 

[QUOTE=Zoom49;2467785]dude! can u please tell what dealership that was! i want to take advantage thanks

 

7/4/08 (dont think I got any special for 4th of July)
08 sport manual base model
21703 + tax/ title
little less than 24k out the door
Fremont Mazda, but it was originaly from somewhere near LA

 

[QUOTE=Isolee;2553378]fremont mazda was having something like that. any dealer should be doing that on '08s nowadays

 

I just got mine in Feb. 2006 AT Sport, 22k miles on it. Got it for 15, 800

 

I bought my '06 MT touring w/appearance package in February. I paid $19,500. The car had around 3,000 miles on it and I bought it from a Cadillac dealership. It probably helped that there was about two inches of snow on the ground when I went to test drive it.

 

So i'm talking to a so-cal dealership about getting an 08 40th anniversary and they want 31k for it, i'm gonna low ball the **** out of em and see what they do with me. I'm hoping i can get it for 27k or less hah.

 

2008 Black RX8 Sport MT with performance package/rear spoiler
$2,1000+Tax and license

 

I got my 2005 BB RX8 6 speed with 26k miles on it for $18,000 got the car last week of April.
