Come on people! Dumb? Stupid? That was not nice. Ignorance is bliss and those who didn't know about this compartment are blessedly bliss. :D

Well, I'm not afraid to admit that I've got almost 7,000 miles on the car, just went outside to test this, and was entirely surprised to find that extra storage. Very cool!

Oh my god... you guys are too harsh....
Make sure you see the rear centre verticial plastics bit --- search the inside for rubbish -- do you know they are designed to keep ruubish, rather people have drill 9" holes and put extra subs in them :p

I actually did see this when the day I test drove the car - but I had just forgotten about it until it was brought up here! Yep, another stupid one here. Hi, my name is Kal, and I'm stupid.

LOL You know this is all in fun, don't you all? After all, Ignorance is not a bad word nor label. We are ALL ignorant of something or another, not one of us know it all. No one is stupid or dumb here, after all, you bought the RX-8, how could you consider yourself stupid? IF you are stupid for doing so, then we are all stupid. Guess what? We aren't stupid. :D

I'll let you in on another secret... if you open the front doors, there are a pair of doors in the back as well but they open the opposite direction than most cars...
But don't tell ANYONE ELSE... it's a secret compartment to hold extra PEOPLE!!!

You people are being way too harsh on me. There are many people out there that did not know about it. And the comment about the missing horespower in the "secret compartment" i'd love to find the compartment with that.....hopefully some1 will post that compartment....unless they're too threatened by the jerks on the site

I don't think anyone is trying to be malicious.
Just having a little fun.
You've just been flamed. It happens get over it.
As I've seen well spoken elsewhere on the site:
"Welcome to the Cult"

anyway, maybe you should think about your posts more before you submit them, I mean most people don't have much respect for openly 'dumb' people. I certainly don't.

I have not posted yet. And I'll try not to be a smart as* but you should always read the owners manual 1st. Don't mean to sound like a parent but you did invest in a 30 thousand dollar vehicle.
This isn't a 50 dollar stereo...........RENE

I don't blame you for not spotting this "secret compartment" beforehand. Your sales rep at the dealership should have shown you this. I bet he just gave you the keys and prepared the papers without explaining anything about your ride. Maybe you looked like a "sure buyer" at that dealership.
Just a heads up too, in case your sales rep didn't tell you, you have 8 airbags! Don't be opening panels where they are placed in case you're experimenting with your interior. We dont want to read your post that says "Damn it! A secret airbag blew up on my face! Stupid Mazda!"
jk with ya pal :D

When you post a question like that your asking for it, so first think before a post, no hard feelings but this is normal on all forums, you get flamed for such things.

I was shown the center console compartment on my test drive. But after 4 months I just found the little compartment above my left knee a couple of weeks ago....
