Saw one for sale by my house for three months. Thought they sold it but they just moved it to another lot on the other side of town.

I saw that too--pretty bad. It became last year's model by the time it was sold at a substantial discount.

Yeah really. Wasn't the RX-8 on the lot for an average of 168 days? It was something like the 5th worst car in that regard.
