2005 Mazda RX8 review from North America
"An excellent ride, well worth the money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have not had a problem with this car since I bought it.
General comments?
This car is a joy to drive, reasonable performance and ride - the rails handling make it so.
There is a reason many people wait 1 or 2 model years to buy a new model, so that the manufacturers can work out the glitches, and they always have so many suckers to experiment on. Few have been the new models to come out without glitches in the past 15 years. However I will not be keeping this car forever, because it is a very snug fit for me with the sunroof, yet I will regret the day I have to give it up.
