Hi all,
Am new here and planning to lease an RX..


Which dealer/ salesman will You recommend me to go see for the RX-8 ???
Who gives the best service for those cars??

By the way I was quoted around 595$/month (all included) for an 6 speed GS with metallic paint and spare tire as only options....48month lease with 1000$ graduate rabate......
How it is look, is this a fair price fot that car ????
Can I get it lower, or it's easier to get a deal when i get some more options; I will maybe take the aero spoilers.....
(sorry for asking, am sure Your tired of 'is this a good deal' threads).....;)

and for those who drive theirs Rx all year around pls visit my thread about cold temp starting problems (no flooding probl..) and heave snow driving at:

thx in advance for Your input...

Do not go to Mazda Gabriel.

Unfortunately, due to 1 bad salesperson who has since left, I have a bad impression of their dealership. Their management was either inactive or condoned outright lying to the customer.

My car was delivered with 80k on it after they said it was delayed a week at the train yards due to the CN strike (BS - because I checked). It was test driven for a week.

Avoid George T.. at Mazda in Laval. He will imply that you should be begging him to sell you the car.

Forget the spare, btw. The truck is small enough, and you have the Mazda towing if you have cellphone coverage.

I have no clue about the 'deal' your getting because I didn't lease.

Good luck!

Baze thx for reply and tips...appreciated

sorry for Your bad experience..that sucks....:(

where do You service Your car..???

As for the spare, i have a good cell phone coverage (rogers At&t and FIDO) but sometimes i want to take few long rides, or travel little bid, that's why i think i might need the spare tire...

wtf..., am not ChuckRX8..... there have to be a big f***up in the forum code.....

80 kms.That's 100 less than what mine had.I was so excited to get it that I did not even check the mileage on my test drive.Although I did not buy mine at Gabriel, I am having it serviced there.I met the tech that works on my car and honestly, I think he knows his stuff.I asked him what was the most frequent repair/service with the rotary engine and he told me straight out, FLOODING.So I guess if we just follow proper procedures (even easier now with M flash) this engine should be extremely reliable.

180km? Wow! That's freaking abusive!!!!!! (sorry if I'm bringing up a sore point) ;)

I haven't had my car serviced yet.... Almost 2 months, and only 1k. I've also been too busy to change my winter tires. I must be a loser. I gotta start driving the car more, before I get a *(#*(&$#@* bald spot (not that there's anything wrong with that ;) ).

It's a dream to drive, though. I've been turning the radio off, just to hear the engine. That's music to my ears.
