Thats not a bad thing. Just means the 8 will become limited and more of a collectors item. I know thats not what you wanted to hear....when do you plan on getting an 8?

This site absolutely SWARMS with any remotely mazda/rotary rumor/story/delusion/hallucination, and I haven't seen anything to suggest that there's any rx9 coming out anytime soon.

collectors item? Have you seen what a year old, slightly used RX8 is going for in the market?

With my encouragement my father picked up a 2005 Sport Pkg with 4,000 miles early last summer for $20500. Plan was for him to tire of it like he did the 350Z, then I'd buy it from him this spring. Plan still not working. I posted earlier that his Lexus GS was rarely getting out of the garage anymore, and this remains the case.

So I really need Mazda to come out with a major upgrade to tempt him into a new one. Either that or I'll just have to get my own.

I assume prices are even lower now. Unbeatable value as a used car for anyone interested in one of the best overall chassis on the planet.

As for the RX-9, the rumors I've seen suggest that the RX-8 will continue to be sold alongside it, as the 9 will be a two-seater. Since I have three kids, if they do cancel the 8 there's a very good chance I'll pick up one of the last ones built. So for me at least it would be a collector's item.
