so im lookin to purchase a 2004 rx8 with 45k clean carfax.. but the car pics shows a eninge start button between the volume button area.. would this be a car to trust or naw???

 

I just got my 07 RX-8 two week ago with 12,000 miles for $16,999. Mine is a newer one and it does not have a push button.

 

even 09 doesnt have it so forget it

 

lol i figured somethin was fishy.. seems kool to have but i dont trust it.. im now lookin at a 05 rx8 sport mt with 52k and powertrain warranty for 3 more years.. they are askin for 13k, blue. worth it?

 

Is that power train warranty provided by the dealer? Because Mazdas powertrain warranty on the 05s end at 60k miles and 5 years.

 

you can find a better deal, may I suggest you get it stock with no upgrades to avoid hazzle with the dealer before purchasing, get all the service reports done to the unit and compare them carefully, you dont want to buy an rx8 with a voided warranty

good luck !!!!!

 

The push start button was a Japanese option for 04+ years,

In the US it was a specialty part you can order and have installed without too much hassle.

 

Push button here I come!

 

i didnt know the push button existed a link maybe to see where the button is located

Most people mount it where the lighter is next to the ashtray in front of the shifter, but it sounds like this guy had his mounted in the MiniDisc area - blank space under volume **** (yes another Japanese option )

 

Its a DIY, heres the link,
