I just recently bought a 2005 Mazda Rx-8 6Spd with 45k miles from Honda Dealer of Stevens Creek. Bought it for my girlfriend for $12488. I think it was a good deal considering Mazda dealers in the same area were asking for $17800 which is $1500-2000 over bluebook price. The car came with a Mazdaspeed Catback, and 18" Enkei RP03 Wheels. Car runs good besides the car is starting to have a slightly longer crank, probably because the ignition system hasn't been changed yet. But I have new NGK Iridium Plugs, Racing Beat Ignition Wires ready to go on tommorow. Coils I just read that they should be changed also. Can't believe the coils are that weak. I'll have to upgrade those soon too. But, anyways, the car is awesome and can't wait to do some modding.

P.S.
Jacked the Enkei wheels and threw em on my FD! I'll get her some Volks or BBS wheels later.

 

If you upgrade the coils just go with the bhr ignition and never have to worry about buying coils or wires again.

Also, those are my fave wheels (although I prefer silver finish). Nice steal!!

Welcome to the addiction

 

Sounds like a good price to me too. Nice pics of the 8, and nice FD too.

 

If i have to pick between the two, it will be the rx7. I still love my rx8, but the rx7 is bad ***.

 

Yeah, thats what I've been reading, and my chick is saving up for that. But I know we should do it soon before it gets worse.





Yea, I think I would of chosen Silver also, but I got em for free, so I ain't complaining too much. And yes, Rotary power is my addiction!


Thanks.

I guess we think alike. The Rx-7 is just a different type beast that the Rx-8 can't be. But I sure love the comfort, 9000rpm and suspension of the Rx-8.

 

...AND a Miata.


That's a nice looking driveway

 

Looks good, those wheels are real nice too. Good steal

 

Yup. Thats the Daily Driver. Should be getting Greddy Turbo next year. The Rx-7 is my toy, and the Rx-8 is my chicks car, and a very cool grocery getter!

Yea, they are nice. Need spacers though. But IDK, I might consider selling them soon, need the money for other things for the Rx-8 and Rx-7 and I plan on going with 17" Spirit R BBS wheels anyways. We'll see. Definitely a steal either way.

 

Congrats and welcome. Nice 7 btw.

 

double thanks!
