2011 RX-8 Grand Touring Black Mica 6MT **SOLD**

Year: 2011
Make: Mazda
Model: RX-8
Price: $12000
Mileage: 46300
Color: Sparkling Black Mica
Private or Dealer Listing: Private Listing
Location (US State/Canada/Int): TX

**SOLD**

For sale is my 2011 RX-8 Grand Touring with ~46K miles on the chassis and 122 miles on the replacement (reman) engine and clutch so far. The engine was replaced under warranty on May 29, 2019 at El Dorado Mazda in McKinney, TX.

The car has always been garage kept, and the body and interior rate 8.5 to 9 out of 10. Paint is very good to excellent, headlights are clear, no dashboard cracks or other interior problems, save for some typical wear on the driver seat bolster. The body has 2 door dings that I can find. One rim has a ding on the edge. There is no other appreciable curb rash on the rims. This is one of the nicer ones you will ever see.

North Texas car = zero rust.

This car has a 6 speed MT, and the shifting behavior is perfect in every gear.

The drivetrain is stock. The only mods I have done to the car relate to suspension, brakes, cooling, ignition, and exhaust. It has:

Ohlins coilovers
Progress MX-5 front sway bar (considered medium for an RX-8)
Flyin' Miata MX-5 adjustable end links front and rear (correct length for ride height of 13.5")
Stoptech drilled and slotted brake rotors (new)
Hawk Street 5.0 brake pads (new)
Technafit stainless brake lines (new)
BHR coils and wires
NGK spark plugs (new)
BHR midpipe with HJS cat (nearly new stock cat available - buyer's choice)
Koyo HH series aluminum radiator
Exedy OE replacement clutch disc and pressure plate (new)
Mazda flywheel (new)
Mazda pilot bearing (new)
SKF heavy duty release bearing (new)
All new fluids - engine oil (dealership 5W20), transmission oil (Redline MT-90), differential oil (Redline 75W90), brake fluid (Redline RL-600), coolant (Mazda FL-22)
New refrigerant with engine replacement
4 wheel alignment at the time of engine replacement (dealership)
Bridgestone Potenza RE760 Sport tires (80%)

CarFax and AutoCheck are squeaky clean.

Full maintenance schedule and parts list available upon request.

PM me with reasonable offers.

^ Life changes, mainly. I moved to a different area a year ago and need different vehicle configuration and better gas mileage for my long commute.

That makes sense. Thank you for responding to me despite the fact that my question was my first post! I'm a long time lurker.

Shame, but understandable. Not surprised it went fast, a low mileage S2, with a good record on the boards, and new engine.

Aren't old people usually the ones who have their cars sit and collect dust?

Yeah, I think a college student might neglect maintenance but not the car itself.
