New 2006 Mazda RX8
 

Hi guys,

I happen to see some PI advertising the new 2006 Mazda RX8? Anyone knows how different it is from the 2005 RX8? I am actually looking to buy an RX8 for some time already.

Cheers!
:)

1yr difference??

Dun think there's much of a difference? I juz got mine in May, so I presume
its 06 model...Dun really any distinct difference between mine n the previous
year...

mine a 2006... 6MT
new color...new seats, new bezel, new meter rings, new plate, that's all...

But the car still the same.... a wonderful 8.

Wonder if you're looking at PIs then it is for an AT?
Wonder if the 6AT made it here...

Hi,

One thing I was told is the remote key for the 2006. I stand corrected :)

Maybe 2006 rx-8 means car registered in 2006 but may be made 2004/2005.

My 2006 RX8 is fixing the accessories now....its not at the PI shop itself...dunno where :cwm27: Once i get it, then i show up at the meetup and let u all compare simi difference :)

This remote, mode remote... got money can liao.

Ya, MM 2006 comes with the remote/retractable key.

Emperor is right. There's a difference between assembled in 2006 and registered in 2006. It all depends on whether the PI you got it from has stored it in a warehouse for the past 2 years or less.

Mine was assembled in 2006 and i dont see a difference. Perhaps just the new car smell and the fact that its "fresh" as compared to a older one ...

True...dunno when was mine assemble? Any bros over here noes
how to check?

But even if its made much earlier...I dun really care lah...too in love
wif my 8 by now... :D:

06 Rx8
 

Rei, very simple...from the log card u will know the year of manufacture. Anyway Snowflake, how your car been doing?Got use to it already?

I think not much difference anyway. Mine is a jun 05

04 and 05 - immobiliser and keyless entry (can also install yourelf, less hassle with alarm system somemore)

05 and some 06 or late 05 have chrome dials and a little here and there.

The biggest diff is the 6sp AT with 250hp engine. That is the one to get. Just too bad its not a DSG or direct sequential gearbox. If the new 6sp has that, its almost a baby ferrari.

Thanks 4 the info...finally noes when was my 8 manufacture...
the log card says manufature year---2006 :)
