I did it!

I bought that 2009 RX-8 GT I was looking at. After trade and all the legal stuff, paid $18K. Comes with almost all the toys and what's left on the warranty. If I'm not mistaken, it's a 100K/8 year warranty.

Well, just have a couple pics from inside the underground parking here. Brought it home in the dark, so no good pics yet.

Dumb question, but is there a way to voice dial by name with the voice system. Maybe it's a phone thing, but I can only dial by full phone number with my Samsung Focus.

Looks like the article was written in 2008, therefore it must have not listed future year models. To my knowledge at least, because on the Mazda Canada website it says different.

Canada's warranty is different from the US.

Oh, Canada. I didn't see he was from Canada. It may be different there.

kenken3686,

I realize when it was written but there is no 8 year/100,000 mile engine core warranty on 2009+ RX-8's. The one I posted is the only one.

What is the condition of your RX-8? However you have paid a good amount for that car. $18k is not too bad if condition is good.

It is in great condition. Runs and looks fantastic. This is not a good market for the 8. Several at a few dealers, all falling in price. I actually got the car for $650 under what they paid for the car when they took it on trade.
