and it's a 4 cylinder. "it shifts like a vehicle was meant to shift", umm, it's an automatic. It was "meant" to be a 6sp. I love how dumb people are.

Ok, I couldn't help it...I had to send an e-mail. I just couldn't let them get away with advertising an extra 50hp on this "4 cylinder" car. :D

I like the fact that his passengers get climate control and a power seat, and he got scammed if he only got 8 speakers...I got 9.

Yeah that's pretty funny, but the 4 Cyl thing is a limitation with eBay, they don't have 'rotary' as an option when listing the car, so at least that one is not the guys fault :p

Really, you can trust him? This is the reply that I got back from my e-mail. Does anyone on here change their oil every 1500 miles? Did anyone in the U.S. get 250hp? If so, I wanna know how you passed emmissions. Also, has anyone ever seen one of these power passenger seats. He claims that it really has them...I want them!!!! I also know the size and weight of my engine which is not 198hp. Now...I do have a little bit of guilt after the heart transplant bit, but not enough to even warrant a reply back to this. Enjoy.

YOU ARE CORRECT IN THE HORSEPOWER-I MADE A MISTAKE IT IS (198HP) AN HONEST ERROR AND ONCE LISTED I CAN'T CHANGE IT. ABOUT THE OTHER CORRECTIONS-WE USE CAR-AD BY EBAY-UNFORTUNATELY IT IS NOT FORMATTED FOR ROTARY ENGINES- I KNOW WHAT A ROTARY ENGINE IS AND HOW IT FUNCTIONS AND WORKS AND THE TLC WHICH IS NEEDED IN THIS MODEL ( FOR EXAMPLE-DO YOU CHANGE THE OIL EVERY 1500 MILES AS THE MANUF. RECCOMMENDS AND DID YOU KNOW THE SIZE & WEIGHT OF THIS 198HP ENGINE IS HALF THAT OF A 198HP TYPICAL ENGINE MANUFACTURED BY ANYONE THAT IS HOW THEY-MAZDA WAS ABLE TO INCORPORATE THE SUICIDE DOORS AND MORE ROOM IN THE REAR. I LISTED THE LITER SIZE AND THAT IT IS A ROTARY ENGINE IN THE NOTE SECTION. AS FAR AS LISTING IT AS A FOUR DOOR COUPE W/ SUICIDE DOORS THERE IS NO CATEGORY FOR THAT IN "CAR-AD" BY EBAY; SO I HAD TO LIST EITHER 2 OR 4 DOORS-WHICH DO YOU THINK PROPERLY REPRESENTS THIS VEHICLE? ALSO I SHOW 2 PHOTOS OF THIS I THINK PEOPLE UNDERSTAND THAT! AS FAR AS THE FOLD DOWN REAR SEATS THAT WAS A MISTAKE ON MY PART-SO 2 MISTAKES BY ME. ON THE REAR SEAT DOLD DOWN ARM REST-AGAIN CAR-ADD DOESN'T HAVE A DESCRIPTIOPN OF THE TRUE TYPE OF REAR ARM REST STORAGE AREA IN THE BACK SO I HAD TO USE WHAT THEY HAD IN THEIR "OPTIONS" SECTIONS. THIS VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH PASSENGER POWER SEATS AND YOU ARE CORRECT IN SAYING THEIR IS NO PASSENGER CLIMATE CONTROL.. THERE IS JUST ONE CLIMATE CONTROL FOR THE VEHICLE. AS FAR AS AIRBAGS.. AGAIN YOU ARE CORRECT THERE ARE 8 BUT CAR AD DOESN'T ALLOW ME TO LIST THAT MANY! YOUR COMMENTS DO NOT COME ACCROSS AS HARSH AND I DO NOT TAKE THEM THAT WAY. I'M A MASTER CERTIFIED MAZDA SALES REP AND OWN A 6 SPEED 250 HP MAZDA RX-8. I TOO TAKE IT SERIOUSLY-I'M NOT MAKING EXCUSES BUT THAT DAY I LISTED THE CAR IT WAS A RECORD 104 DEGREES AND I'M ON MEDICAL LEAVE AWAITING A HEART TRANSPLANT AND I THINK THE HEAT GOT TO ME AND I MADE SOME HONEST MISTAKES AND SOME,CONFUSING MY OWN MODEL I OWN. THANKS FOR YOUR INPUT IT IS GREATLY APPRECIATED. I HOPE OTHERS WILL LEARN!THANKS
