2003-2012 Mazda RX-8 review
A sports car like no other.The Mazda RX-8 was created through the pursuit of a genuine sports car with a totally new four-door, four-seat configuration that delivers sports car values, passenger comfort and driving pleasure. Offering unique and unmistakable styling; sharp and responsive performance and everyday practicality that greatly exceeds other sports cars.Powered by a compact, lightweight and free-revving RENESIS rotary engine, the naturally aspirated power-plant features side-intake and side-exhaust ports for improved power output and fuel economy and combines with a sequential dynamic air induction system and electronic throttle for superb responsiveness and smooth turbine-like performance.Perfect 50:50 weight distribution and a highly sophisticated front double wishbone and rear multi-link suspension setup combine for excellent handling and road holding ability. The highly tractable power-train and superb chassis dynamics provide for neutral cornering and high levels of on-the-limit balance which are essential attributes of a high-performance sports coupe.The Mazda RX-8 answers the demands of sports car enthusiasts who pursue performance driving but are not willing to forego comfort, convenience and practicality. Mazda RX-8 delivers pure exhilaration behind the wheel, but unlike conventional sports cars, it does it without cramping anyone's style.Model Range:
