Is this RX-8 a lemon?

I'm interested in buying it but it seems that nobody wanted it and it was in for service a couple times?!!

Just guessing but I would say that the first couple notations on servicing deal with the dealer pulling it out of inventory for the "re-call" items.....like one of the computer reflashes and maybe the passenger airbag fix. When these are done they are recorded. Just a guess.......

Air Force RX8

Sounds legit to me. First owner traded it in, dealer sold it to auction dealer and is listed by them or an agent for sale.

Well, the car has 5900 miles now and they want $26k for it, that's like $9k off MSRP as the car has every option available (GT, red/blk lthr, app pk, rotary acc, navi, spoiler). Me, as cheap as I am, sent them an email offering $24k, waiting for their response. What do you think?

Doesn't look bad...could "vehicle serviced" mean oil change?
