I'm sorry that the RX-8 left a sour taste in your mouth. I feel like it's truly an amazing car, even if it's not for everybody.
I understood the cold-start issues, but unfortunately, valets and tire shops didn't always listen. I also returned to a no-start after every week long vacation.... I didn't realize that I had to make an entire case when I posted on here...... again, was just trying to help, like others had to me earlier.....obviously it was a different crew than these narrow-minded jerks.
I loved my Mazda

Mazda got your car back because they don't want bad PR.

it does not mean the car it's bad.

Many people said the car floods and **** left & right, but again I got it for like 6 yrs I shut it off cold purposely but not a single issue.

So either you have no idea how to run a car, or you have **** luck

Civic type of car is perfect for you, Have a good day, see you never.

ha! It's probably better that you got rid of your rx8, poor thing. I sold mine recently, but I never had the problems you speak of with it. She was a doll.

Mazda probably bought it back because they knew you couldn't take care of her. LOL!

Agreed someone higher up went "you know what it'll be cheaper for us in the long run to buy this car back then to pay for labor and parts"...
