This RX-8 has treated me exceptionally well and I have returned the favor by treating her exceptionally well. I have owned the car for over 20,000 miles (90% Highway/10% City) and the only part I've had to replace is one wheel bearing due to normal wear and tear. I'm selling because I just bought a beautiful soul red Mazda 6 and need better gas mileage driving 75 miles a day. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out.

The good:

-Paint is in good shape for being 13 years old; I tried to wax once a season.
-Interior is in fantastic condition - no stains, tears, etc.
-A/C works fine and so does the heater; no leaks in compressor or A/C lines.
-Rims still look good; no pitting or brake dust
-Brakes were replaced with drilled and slotted performance rotors last spring.
-All 4 tires have less than 5,000 miles on them
-Tune-up was done 20,000 miles ago and the engine still has good compression after being rebuilt at 65,000 miles by the previous owner. (Averaged 19 mpg combined driving aggressively )
-Coolant was changed last spring and the cooling system has no leaks.
-I changed the oil every 3,000 miles and premix'd ~4oz of Idemitsu 2-stroke oil every fill up.
-I cleaned existing ground and added a heavy duty grounding kit to improve electrical systems and increase performance.
-I replaced the OEM stereo with an aftermarket Alpine 7 speaker set and JVC headunit.
-Also added blue footwell lights and dome LEDs to contrast the red dash lights.
-0 flooding or hot start issues since I have owned it.

The bad:

-Crack in windshield
-The other front wheel bearing needs to replaced soon
-Rough idle due to old motor mounts; runs smooth with applied throttle
