I just purchased a used 2010 RX-8 Sport with 2,000 miles for $19,000.
Did I do OK?

That' a decent price. Welcome aboard.

Easy_E1 11-21-2011 10:40 AM

PICS! That's not a bad price.

Roidz 11-21-2011 02:30 PM

I dunno, you happy with it? Then I'd say you did alright. Lets see some pics.

I payed 18K for my 2009 GT with 27K on it at the time. I would say you did well! Welcome to your new love.

Wow, that was a great price indeed. Congrats on your purchase! Remember, pics or it didn't happen:mdrmed:

At times I wonder if all these stories about great prices are actually true, LOL. When I was in the market for months I never found those "super mega deals" some people brag about here on the forum.

Maybe I just have bad luck!

Enjoy your new ride!!

Or you were just being lazy :lol: A buddy of mine bought his 09 R3 with 20k for less than he paid for his previous 04' Auto used.

ha, ha, I got lazy at the end!

But in reality I looked across the country when was shopping for an 8. I was receiving e-mail alerts from several car search websites on a daily basis for months. In fact, I remember finding a 2009 R3 with 3K miles for a very good price in McKinney, TX (not sure if that's the exact name of the town). Anyway, being all the way in NY killed the deal. Whatever real savings on the sale price would have quickly dissipated after adding traveling costs and taxes (taxes where I live in NY are close to 9%:SHOCKED:) Same thing with many other deals in states hundreds of miles away from me.

So eventually I gave up on trying to find those "mega deals" far away and narrowed my search to more reasonable distances, until I found the one I bought which was "reasonably" priced according to NY standards, lol.

But the OP got a really good deal on that car!!!!

Hi. I just bought RX 8 2004 and joined RX 8 club. I have big problem getting it registered
here in Finland because the EPA- sticker is missing. Would someone help and take a good
picture of the sticker. It has to be year model 2004.
Itīs a super car and it was first sold in Florida and on 2007 to europe.
I wrilly need that photo !!!
You can send it to me also to my e-mail timo.kaalikoski@lagerholmfinnsauna.com

Many thanks
Timo

Why would you need a United States EPA (Environmental Protection Agency funded by the US government for US only purposes, http://www.epa.gov/) sticker in Finland? :scratchhe

And I can't believe that "taking a picture" of one will work for either your registry needs or manufacture of a substitute. They are pretty specific to the individual cars.

Timokaali 11-23-2011 02:45 AM

Wrilly, thats the way it is here in Finland. Car is now changed to fullfill Finnish registration
demands ( rear fog light, head light washers and so on).
I have been in the registration office and now i have to show them at least a photo
of 2004 rx 8 emission sticker and i get it registered.

Traded My 06'350Z for RX8
 
I traded my 06/350Z with 70K miles for a 2009 RX8 GT with 26300 miles, 6 speed. The dealer said he was charging mye some $21800 for the RX-8 and giving me $14200 for my car. I took it.

We get fog. I would give up beer for a month to have the Mazda OEM rear fog light.
