Hey guys I'm about a week away from buying an RX-8, and currently I have two offers that I'm entertaining. One is a sport package '05 complete with Mazdaspeed spoiler and the other is a grand touring '05 with a navi, both around the same price. I was wondering though how much weight the grand touring package adds, with the addition of the sunroof, seats, and navigation system, over the sport package. Anybody know these figures?

 

I would definately pick up the Grand Touring pack if it is around the same price.

 

my base model weighes in at 2960lb with a full tank minus me (per a CAT scale)

 

You can add about 100lbs to the weight ^ above for the GT

 

My package weighs more. :D
Sorry, couldn't resist.

 

get the GT.. you won't notice the weight diff

 

The GT is about .2 seconds slower in the 0-60 runs. I'd still say get the GT anyway, its nice to have a good interior.

 

yeah anyone who says interior doesn't matter is lying, for the same price.... i'd go with the GT as well

 

Go with the GT, and get the Nav too. I am still kicking myself 1.5 yrs later for not getting the Nav.
