I was going to say maybe he bought a 2007 and had it painted, but then I saw the 2004 black washer fluid reservoir. Maybe he had the car painted and the black reservoir retrofitted!

The text says something about "original paint", which lets out the repainted notion.

No warranty on a mislabelled '04 with an open recall on file. Caveat emptor, alright.

It's also a one cylinder! Sweet!

Only 2004's have the black washer fluid reservoir? Mine is a 2005 (VIN and Carfax proven) with the black washer fluid container. Just sayin...

Only owners of REAL yellow RX-8s, made only in 2004, understand the power of the YELLOW.

It's a Mazda thing. Yellow's a first year color. If there's a mk2 8, it'll probably get yellow the first year as well.
