Would 2009 Recaro seats fit in 2004-2008?
I am curious if these would bolt right into the 2004-2008 models.

I am also curious on the price.

That's just as an individual part. It costs the factory a lot less. Try building something piecemeal from parts, you'll realize that it costs Mazda a lot less to build them.

I prefer the Recaro "Sport" seat for about $850. The lines of the seat go with the RX8 much better in my opinion.
