My new purchase 04 RX-8

I just went out and got an 04 GT 6speed with 20k on it. I was in the market for a WRX or an EVO but after driving the 8 I loved every bit of it.

something about this car being underpowered and flawed yet, still captivates people after a simple test drive... it's a great car, enjoy it dude.

The car is in great condition. It was bought at the dealer and traded in at the same dealership by an older person, so I'm assuming that it wasnt run hard. If it was I wouldnt imagine that much. The leather seats are in perfect condition, no signs of normal wear n tear, and no signs of tears in the back,(like anyone can fit back there). It has moonroof,spoiler, dual heated seats, 6 disc in dash changer, and the larger brakes.

2Xrotary- you'd be suprized. I am 5ft 4 and I can sit comfortably in the back even with my 6ft 2 husband in front of me. I do it all the time when we have more than just the two of us in the car. It also fits our rear facing infant car seat perfectly. My husband can't sit comfortably in the back, but other guy friends can (depending on who is sitting in front of them).

Sammy00- that doesn't sound bad. We just replaced our 04 black base model (wrecked last month) with a silver touring package with bose, 6 disc changer, & moon roof added for under $19k. It has just under 20k miles. Yours has lower mileage and I'm guessing leather so I think you got a decent deal.
