(Socal) '05 RX8 with new factory installed engine
Hi guys!
I used to be very active here and learned a great deal from RX8 Club and also made a great deal of friends here. My mother recently lost her struggle with breast cancer and I decided to take her Lexus SC400 and sell the RX8 . I've always been a meticulous owner and more importantly - a rotary enthusiast!
Here's a little bit of information about the car:
2005 Mazda RX8
Touring
6 Speed Manual
Velocity Red Mica Exterior
Cloth Gray Interior
Mileage: 62,xxx miles
I have a couple of nice, tasteful modifications done to the car:
I'm sure I'm forgetting some other things, but that's most of it.
Asking $10,500 OBO. The vehicle still has the engine warranty until 100,000 miles. I have all the paperwork for the recent services including the most recent engine swap by Tustin Mazda.
If you're interested, please call me at (714) 323-2333 if you have any questions. I don't come on RX8 Club as often so calling me would be the best way to reach me.
