RX-8 Sales RECORD in UK

Mazda UK September 2005 total Sales are the best on record with over 9000 units sold for the month...

The RX-8 sales were 4 more than the same time last September.. 1417 to 1421.
The 8s second highest monthly sales result since launch.

Quote:
Mazda RX-8's share of the September sport car segment (non premium) continues to be strong at 23.9 per cent compared to 17.6 per cent for full year 2004. In fact, sales of Mazda's award winning rotary-engined sports car were 79 per cent above Audi TT.

Good result

Sweet, I'm glad to hear it's doing well in the UK. It looks like all the enthusiasts have their 8s here already.

That's more RX-8s sold than here in the US for the same month. A great result considering the relative size of the US vs. the UK! The Brits must know a good thing when they see it, unlike us horsepower crazy big is always better Americans.

A Sophisticated driving experience is obviously recognised by the Brits, horsepower is not the be and end all in a car, the 8 is a perfect balance with 4 doors.
