I just called up Mazda inquiring about an extended warranty and they stated that the car has to be less then 3 years and has less then 80,000km.

I wanted to get an RX8 that is under 3 years but already has 100,000km on the car.

I was wondering if anyone else that had high milage on their car was able to purchase an extended warranty? If so from where?

Also im located in Toronto, Canada...

I could find some other RX8s with lower milage, but the reason why im so attracted to this one is because of the price (its like 20k) and it recently had a factory recall on its engine.

So its basically got a brand new engine in it, but the odometer reads 100k of course

Where did you get your extended warranty?

Was it from Mazda or a third party??

Actually does anyone have any opinons on either a factory replaced engine (pros/cons) or warranties in general?

This is going to be my first car purchase, and i really wanted to make sure that since the 8 has a rotary engine that its well covered at the very least with some sort of warranty. I dont need a bumpuer to bumper, as long as the engine itself is covered...

right from mazda. And if they just replaced the engine you should ask for a 100,000 or 160,000km warranty and be like whats the difference between this engine and one i'd get with a brand new car.

and if you're actually going to buy the car, tell them the only thing in the way of them getting your money is a nice mazda warranty
