The mazdaspeed rx-8 is only available in japan, and it's just some suspension stuff with a body kit. You can buy it peace meal in the united states.

if you want 320 hp, get a turbo kit. mazsport has kits that look like they can dish out around 400 hp.

No i dont even think it will be out then. For anyone else who is going to ask, I just don't see mazda coming out with a MS version. This topic has been debated over and over again, if you do a search, you'll see. First of all the gas mileage is already bad, and adding a turbo on it, it will be even worse. Also turbo kits come with some minor problems, and the 8 has had enough problems for some people without the turbo now just imagne having a turbo kit. Mazda will be hesitant to fix things, and people on this forum will have even more complaining about mazda. I'm happy with my 8 just the way it is!
