So Mazda's halo car is the Miata, not the RX-8???

thats what i'm saying!! The flag ship car for mazda is the rx's... lets write up hate mail for these people. But i can understand why they choose the miata... the loss of the rx7 and the long wait for the rx8 would make the miata a right choice. Most non tuners would answer miata if they where asked the question "which car represents mazda?"

DOMINION

Hell I dont tune and I would say RX-7

WOW! i'm sorry dominion, let me rephrase that, "most" average, non car loving, non car enthusiest people would say Miata. is that better? and let me mention "MOST"!

until I got interested in the RX-8, I never knew about the RX-7. Or any rotary car for that matter.

I bet a lot of people went through that. Most average 8 drivers that are not on this forum still don't know that the rx7 existed.

Hmm. The Miata isn't technically a halo car, more like a flagship car, because it sells. Halo cars aren't supposed to sell that well.

DOMINION

Its was a joke bro

Why?

IMO, a Halo is supposed to be an icon, something that represents just how good a car company can be. If that's the case, I would argue the Miata is a great halo car. And if a Halo is the best a car company can offer, regardless of price of the car, than I'd hope they can at least meet their sales expectations.

It is hardly a flagship car, that would be the Mazda 6 or the Mazda 3.

That makes the RX-8 a halo car then (at least according to the current sales figures).
