lets me guess, the one without the mazda logo is replica. if the car come with original mazdaspeed fitted in japan, logo will come along with the kit, and driver will not bother to take it off, because it surely is original lover.
the one without the logo, is aftermarket, means he got the car first, then decide to mod it, and took off the logo.
bingo?

Hi
i'm thinking of buying a 2003 model going for about 138k.
belongs to my mom's friend, female driver. she bought it from naza back then for i something like 200k+...
you guys reckon it's a good buy?
just wondering what the fuel consumption is like?

Comparing the difference in price of unreg and 2nd hand is roughly 10k. U could choose to buy the 2nd hand unit and use the 10k to rebuild the engine since the unreg unit doesn't mean it's problem free. What's the mileage and condition of the 2nd hand unit?
Fuel consumption is roughly from 280km to 400km for 60L depending on driver habit and traffic.

Hi Nikolez, for other 2nd hand cars, a female driver is good but not really for RX8. The 8 is different as it needs regular engine oil inspections and redline to get rid of carbon deposits which i doubt any "regular female driver" would do especially at the age of ur mum's friend. The type of engine oil used is also an issue.

I never fancy a girl driven car, 75% of them don't take care of their car...
