Im torn! I really love the rx8 in its current beauty but I cant get myself to buy one knowing that it will change in the next year (or maybe 2).

just some other thoughts: currently I can get a GT package rx8 for 28K.. if the new one comes out i doubt such a great deal will be available on the new one. but on the flip side it might have many improvements

basically i wanna know if anyone knows when the new 8 is going to come out and any concept pictures / speculations on the engine and design. and of course if pricing is going to change.

 

Just get it, it's not worth waiting.

 

Yeah...what they said

 

there is no new one coming out

theyre gonna milk this baby ooooouuuuuttttt

 

Well, this is a good idea ... but why wait a year for it?

Knowing that there is a facelift coming out next year, why not use that to your advantage now? Why not negotiate the price down to $22k or so?

When I bought mine in 2004, Mazda were more than willing to drop that much off the price ... why not now?

 

i can probably wait another year before purchasing a car (i have a motorcycle for commute), but im going to need a car sooner or later and if waiting 2 years might be too long a wait for me. anyone know if the rx8 is going to change in 2008 (when 2009 models come out) or later

 

On a new GT, yeah ok... The cars cost much more then that, They've never had a rebate big enough.

 

You could get 8k off MSRP without even having to negotiate much... 22k was is a little low for a GT back then, but not by a whole lot. I don't know what the average deal is now, but 28k doesn't seem like anything special.

 

i would say get it. I was in the same situation as you and i just bought it. Glad i did too.

 

well i know the '08 look the same but have the 40th anniversary special edition. its like the same as 06 shiinka but in gunmetal. exact same thing +the badges.

good luck on the deal though. i only was able to get it in the high $26k for the gt no nav. or basically $30k otd
