Found this small but new pic of the 8 in the July issue of CAR the supplement is entitled ALL TIME TOP TENS.

Text reads:

An unusual take on the sports car from the most innovative of
Japanese companies. Mazda has kept faith with the Wankel rotary
engine that also powered earlier RXs; it may be thirsty but it works well in the RX8, delivering strong, stepless acceleration, while the chassis and 50/50 weight distribution serve up agility and stability. The discreetly four-door RX8 is an understated, stylish and highly competent sports car.


Think they like it!

Is it my imagine or do the wheels look 16" in the image ?

AnilS.

They are. That is a Jap spec car, with the cheaper wheels they also have over there.

Correct! Those are the 16' wheels. You can tell because the rim is a differnt style.

Thats my avatar! :D
