They are as limited as the demand for them. If you order one you will get one, so you will have to wait and see how many are produced. Its like a package basically like SSL EVOs, the manufacturer set no limit on how many will be produced, basically all up to demand.
By chance anybody know what tires they come with?? I saw that car and driver managed a 14.9 1/4 mile, never seen one in the 14s stock and since the R3s have no extra power i am assuming it is the tire no? or do they have some sort of weight reduction as well?

r3 is not a limited edition. it's a regular production trim. they'll just be rare 'cuz fewer and fewer 8's are getting sold, and few of those are r3's. to me (or people like me), they're special and i'll be hunting for one in the future

I cannot remember where I read it but the "as tested" weight of the R3 was about 50lbs over the as tested weight of the '04 to '08 8's.

Based on the 2009 sales figures ALL 2009 RX-8 will be rare
