Rear Quarter windows
Does anyone know if these will be fixed in place or will they be able to be rolled down?

I haven't seen any pics showing any controls for these windows. There might also be structural and weight issues on those rear doors as well.

By the looks of it, those windows will not go down.

Could be wrong...

If I had to guess, I'd say they were fixed. Doesn't the virtual B-pillar run through the front of the rear doors? That'd probably prevent the rear windows from rolling down.

However, the rest of the car is a packaging marvel, so I wouldn't be surprised if Mazda found a way to get the rear windows to roll down.

Neither. They flip out.

Chances are the OP went through two RX8's in the time it took him to receive a correct answer.

It's funny seeing the questions that were being batted around back then.

Troll no, just a noob that actually used the search. His only fail is not looking at the date which other older members also have done.
