How much did you purchase your used 8 for?
 

Hey,
I thought there should be a thread similar to the other one about the purchase price of a new 8, so here it is. This should help inform potential buyers as well as current owners about their car's general market value. For instance, I recently purchased the following:

2004 Sunlight Silver GT w/ 53,000 miles for $11,500. It's in pretty good condition, with the right taillight fogged up because of a gasket that needs to be replaced. The car was stock and bought last month in San Diego County. What about everyone else?

Bought my 2007 RX-8 GT, fully loaded except for NAV with 2,600 miles, for $20,500 two weeks ago. Found it on AutoTrader.com.

Bought my 2006 RX-8 Shinka Pearl White fully loaded except NAV for $19,500 Canadian (From a dealer in PA) with 20,000 miles.

April 2008 - 2005 6spd GT with 19k miles paid $18,500 total.

2005 Whitewater Pearl GT, all options except nav, perfect condition, well maintained, 8,500 miles, original date of purchase in September of 2006 (19 miles on the odo), so ~1 year more warranty than expected, purchased for $19,500 from a Mercedes dealer in Cincinnati Ohio via Cars.com on October 27th 2007.

06 Copper Red Shinka, bought it last week from a Mazda dealer in Wellesley, MA.

Dealer still had original window sticker, thing is fully loaded, had the aero package and rotary emblems stock on the window sticker. Paid 17K, car has 21K miles and not a scratch on it. A lot of interior trim still had the protective plastic film on it, so it was probably a lease before I got it.

2004 MT GRAND TURING, navigation ,leather heated seats, all the powers, . 29000 miles bought in march08 for 16000

O5 Base w/ Sport Package 33k miles for $13,500 .

AT rx8 $10,000 with about 50,XXX during fall 2007

FYI Spence15
 

Sorry to burst your bubble Spence15, but the '06 Shinka's were only available in Copper Red.

You most likely have a GT with the appearence package.

Actually he is correct. The '06 Shinkas came in several colors, WWP was one of them. Of the Shinka colors, only Copper Red was not available to non-Shinkas, so it is often perceived as the 'True' '06 Shinka.

Sept. 2008- Bought my 2004 WB RX8 6spd with 34,000 miles with every option except for nav for $13,500.

Don't waste your money on this car. Buy a 350z or G35. Mazda sucks, not to mention their warranty programs!!!!

2004 GT; AT engine had 20k miles & body had about 38k miles. I bought the car for 15,500

I had an 05 Grand Touring edition 6 speed manual. It spent more time at the dealership than at my house or the road! Finaly got tired of it and traded it in for an Infinity G35. The way I was treated at the Mazda dealership sealed the deal. Everytime I was told "we fixed it" just to be back days, weeks, or next moth the same thing and then new stuff. I wouldn't buy anything Mazda related. No wait I would buy a time proven RX7 the only car worth anything that they have built. But at least with the 7 I know what to expect.

:nopity:

this is not the thread for this, go cry somewhere else about your issues with mazda

bought mine for 22k new from dealer it was white, base with sport package (aka hids and dsc) 6 speed no moon roof ^_^ exactly what i wanted

picked mine up in miami about a month back. MT black 04, 50,000mi,excellent shape, sport package, magnaflow exhaust, 19 inch forged rims, halo fogs/ HID's, full urethane body kit, tein lowering springs and six puck clutch, all for $11,500 (think i got a helluva deal..).

I bought mine last week 04 GT MT fully loaded for $10,600 before tax. It has 77,000 miles on it. From a used car lot.

Got mine 3 wks ago, for $13,500. It had a tad over 13k miles on it. '06 Grand Touring with black/red seats. Fully loaded, 6 disk cd/ Xenon lights, sunroof, Bose system (no nav)..the works. The only thing I purchase for it was a new set of tires to replace the stock ones, which looked very, very good.


I just ordered an AxialFlow short shifter and will purchase a new catback soon. I'm loving the heck out of this car.
