RX-8, MX-5, CX-7, CX-9, 2,3,5,6... the emblems all use the same font. Sorry, I don't have it though.

This one is pretty close to the Mazda font on the rear... but I don't know of an RX-8 specific font.

Allright i will explain closer:

If U watch the back of the RX-8 U will see on left side is the mazda logo, but on the right is the RX-8 logo and they are different.
By the way, this font is exactly the same as it is on the top of this page - RX-8 club.com or maybe was it made custom ?

Its not a font, its a hand-drawn logo.
I think I have seen a TTF of it at some point.
I have an Adobe version, but I won't be giving that away. Sorry.

take a picture of it and then follow these directions.
http://www.andrew.cmu.edu/user/twm/makefont/

i'd do it for, but im highly unmotivated.

also, you'd only get the R, the X and the 8. and the dash. as MM said, its a logo. its not from a font set.
