should i buy a 2004 or 2005 rx8?
I have heard to completely stay away from 2004s from a few people but i figure i will get the real answer from here. Im new but i have researched how to take care of the cares intensely. the only question now is if there is a significant difference in the 2005 models to constitute not buying a 2004. so...opinions?

Engine core warranty.

Most likely the '04 is out or will be out soon enough.

Second what he/she said. If you can buy an 05 over an 04 I would since you will get an additional year of engine warranty.

Of course...an 05 for sure. You still have a year warranty, but ask for engine compression before you commit, good luck.
