Hey everyone.
I have a 2004 RX-8 for sale. It is a 6-speed, Grand Touring with every available option except Navigation. I have owned this car for 2 years. Garage stored 8 months out of the year (October-April), and garage kept also. It has 50,204 miles. I purchased this car in October of 2010 with 37,713 miles from a dealership. It has a bumper-bumper transferable warranty until October 2013, or 73,713 miles (not through Mazda, but the dealerships warranty company). Have all original RX-8 floor mats as well. Clean title, no accidents, bumps, etc.
I have changed the oil and oil filter myself every 3000 miles with Mobil 1 20w-50. I just changed it again about 400 miles ago. I have always added oil to the car every 200 miles, and checked the oil level every time after the car was driven. Always let the car warm up before driving and never took it above 4,000 RPM's while cold. The miles are mostly highway, as my girlfriend went to school at PSU and I lived 200 miles away.
I have been running Stihl 2-cycle oil for premix since day 1. I used 1 oz. premix to 160 oz. of 93 octane. I have always ran Shell V-Power 93, nothing above or below. I did the "redline a day keeps the carbon away", as well as a whole seafoam treatment the week following the purchase. I did not "bang gears" or "chirp tires", I simply put the car in neutral and took it to 10k, let the rpms drop to idle and then put the car back in gear. I did not do "mad JDM drifts" in this car. In fact, I never had the time to take it the track (as bad as I wanted to). I treated this car with respect, and it treated me with sheer driving pleasure in return. Nothing is wrong on this car. Of course, the paint has some very minor chips and small marks, you can see the picture of the front bumper where the paint has been burned through and the clear is peeling very slightly. I don't know how it happened, I bought the car that way and had plans to fix it up but just didn't know how and did not want to chance ruining my paint. I have stickers to promote my friends business on the car also, the stickers do not represent myself, nor my car or what it does (again, no "sick azz clutch kickin' driftz", etc. etc...although I do like Deadmau5).
The plugs, wires (Mazdatrix 8.5mm), coilpacks, and belts were replaced at 43,560. The rotors and pads were replaced at 43,921. I installed a K&N Typhoon II intake at 45,671. The coolant (50/50 Zerex with a bottle of Redline Water Wetter) was replaced at 49,230. The transmission and differential fluids were replaced at 49,611 (Eneos 75w90, Redline MT90). MAF cleaned at 49,665.
I have a Knight Sports rear lip spoiler installed. RotaryFX tinted side markers, and black fender strakes. Clear vinyl paint protection on both front sides of side rails. Tein S-tech lowering springs. Wheels are ADR M-Classic, 18x8 with 1" lip in back, 18x7.5 with 1/8" lip in front. I bought these in SOWO this year in their current condition (a few paint chips, scratches) and planned on sandblasting/powdercoating them but haven't had the time to do so. They are wrapped in 225/45 General Exclaim UH-P, %85 tread on front and %65-70 tread on rear. Car does not need aligned, it drives straight, doesn't pull or push, no camber/caster wear, rides very very smooth with minimal road/cabin noise. It is debadged and the holes are filled with color code painted screw cap covers. The rear Mazda logo has a few scratches around it from having trouble trying to get it off to replace it with a new one (the old one was flaking and was snapped on the left wing, was going to replace but just have not got around to it...I work over 60 hours a week.)
This car was not molested in anyway shape or form. I washed this car every weekend, polished/waxed every 2-3 weeks, and reconditioned the glass, leather, rubber, vinyl, plastic, chrome, door jams, hinges, and carpet every 3 weeks. I truly do love this car, and I was planning on keeping it for a very long time, but I have no interest in rotarys anymore and plan on buying another car when I'm done with school.
If there is anything else you may need to know please feel free to send me a PM. I can tell you anything you'd like to know. I'm located in Beaver Falls, PA. Pictures can be found at the following link below. Thank you for your time and have a nice day

C'mon guys, I'm tired of having this thing just sit in my garage. I want someone else to enjoy it as much as they should be able to! Price drop, $11,500.
