2 Door RX-8

2 Door RX-8
Hi, I really like the RX-8 and would really consider purchasing one if it was strictly a 2 door and not have the suicide doors. Does Mazda have any plans to come out with a 2 door RX-8? Is anybody else interested in a 2 door RX-8? I think a 2 door RX-8 would make the car look much better.

Isn't it true that several manufacturers are about to copy Mazda again & release models with thier own suicide design for 2004........???
Mercedes for example.

Yes, before we knew it, the market is gonna swam with suicide doors, but still, it's nice to lead rather than follow. Mazda have, yet, done it again.

family and future considerations will now eternally prevent me from ever owning a 2 dr or 2 seater so the RX8 is the closest I can get without engendering the wrath of the g/f... you can call it cheating if you want but hey, she never really mentioned it HAD to have 2 FULL rear doors or a bench back seat...
"Hi honey! I got that new 4dr 4 seater family car!" :D

you may want to wait for the miata coupe. it went on sale in japan this year (http://www.mazda.co.jp/customize/roadstercoupe/) and might be available here in the near future. maybe a couple years down the line they'll combine the miata coupe with the miata turbo convertible (http://www.roadster.mazda.co.jp/limited/turbo/) to create the turbo coupe.

well as for the freestyle doors i think few pick ups had em before the rx-8 and of course the Saturn. But its a lot sharper on the 8. at least i think so.
as for a 2dr version. Blah. that would ruin this car. As for the convertible.. id be interested in seeing that.

I love the suicide doors, it gives the car a whole different look; its sporty as hell, and it has the comfort of not having to move the front seats to have people sit in the back.
