Help Rx8 Wont Start..

Hey all, My gf just purchased a Rx8 and only had it for a couple days.. Its an 2004 Manuel..

After two days the car wont turn on at all..

Its been in the mechanics for 2 weeks now and they still haven't fixed it

Ok so its not turning over but wasn't getting a spark so we check it if it was flooded but its not..
The plugs have been changed and now put a new crank angle sensor on it and its sparking but not turning over..??

When it happened the car was driving and it just shut off like it was running out of fuel..

Any help would be amazing please help folks

The mechanics can't figure it out? I hope they're reliable and you had the car checked out before you bought it.

Have them do a compression test, coils checked/changed, wires. Basically everything your mechanic should be checking. Is there a CEL? Does it crank? How's the fuel pump, injectors?
There's not enough info and your mechanic should have all this if he/she is competent.
