Hey guys, I'm a previous RX-8 owner who has spent the last few years with a 3000GT VR-4. But the RX has always felt like "the one that got away," so I'm interested in returning to the platform. To get my hands dirty, I'd love to find a 2005 or greater (manual only) that's in good condition except for a blown motor. I want to do the rebuild myself to really learn the rotary (when I previously owned one, it was brand new and I kept it 100% stock).

I'm in the Seattle area, and I'd be willing to negotiate a trade of my VR-4 for said RX-8. Let me know if you have one you need to get off your hands and we'll talk.

Thanks!

Sorry for not closing out this thread sooner, but I've owned an RX-8 for over a year now. Thanks!

Are you still looking? I just spent 5000 bucks on one only to have it fail 25 miles into it. I know it's a year too old, but I have a 2004 with a blown motor.

Nope, I've had a '10 R3 for about three years now and have had zero problems, even with multiple track days

Is a 2004 out of the question?
