to answer ur question, yes, there are outside garages who can solve ur problems. the money u save from buying from a PI is worth the trouble. RX8 has some problems, but nothing so major that the rotary workshops outside can't solve.
Buy one bro!

buy from garage r. their service is really good. look for june. she is really nice and professional. and they do throw in add-ons if possible. ultimately, when u buy from PIs, trust and reliability is very impt. and her sis, Siew Lee knows the rotary engine pretty well too. so can actually send to them for repairs

COE price might drop, might go up... GST will definitely go up, only a matter of time. 6AT and 4AT has a different engine, not just a different transmission.

I dun know if there are '06 6ATs or '07 4ATs... so don't rely on the year of manufacture. Basically, just get the 6AT or 6MT if you are gonna get a new 8.

from this forum i guess u have the range from 320km to 420 average. some even hit 480km per tank but very rare.
As for full tank i dun think it will be $100 since it is only 55L tank and after discount should not be so much. maybe $80? anyone can confirm?

KMs you can get out of each tank can range from under 300 to over 500 kms depending on the type of car, driving conditions, weight of your right foot, size of your ego and material of your family jewels.
