Was getting my "8" washed the other day when this goofball starts this converstion:
HIM: Is that RX8 yours?
ME: Yes
HIM: I used to have a RX7 and loved it, when I was in Japan 6 (six) years ago I saw one there and fell in love with it, but couldn't accept it had a back seat.
ME: They didn't produce RX8's six years ago, did you se a concept or something?
HIM: No they were for sale. They just weren't for sale over in the US then, but they were in Japan.
I just walked away after that... they did not sale RX8's in Japan in 1999... right?

Im pretty shure he was because th RX-evolv concept didn't come out till 2003 or 2002 i think?
I know, I i fell inlove with the RX-8 when I first saw the RX-evolv concept and it wasn't in 99
In 99 I still had my FC and only dreamt of them bringing back the FD to the states.

in japan back in 1999, they had rx8 with turbo in it with 300 hp.
sorry, they didn't. as has been mentioned, the 3rd Gen RX-7 was produced in japan until 2002 and it could be purchased as a 4 seater (power on that probably would have been around the 275-300hp area too, with twin-turbos), but no RX-8 before 2003...except the concepts. The RX-8 concept, as it appears today (mostly) was debuted in 2001, but it wasn't in production, and it wasn't for sale.

yes you could get an RX7 2+2, the max FACTORY power on the RX7 was 280hp for the twin turbo version in the Type RS and Type R...otherwise the twin turbo engine made 265hp.
you can see the 'back seat' on that one.
The announced the production version/release of the Mazda RX8 on April 9th 2003 in japan.
