2003 Mazda RX8 review from North America
"Great exotic car,"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Had starting issue when I first got the car. I was told about the short trip issue, but. I guess I didn't believe it. Other than that I have had no problems. It does use oil. That is the nature of the car. Tire sensors light comes on a lot. I chalk that up to new technology...
General comments?
This is a very quick, on rails car, great on road trips, can handle nice size golf bag and the wife's luggage. You have to pay a lot more dough to get something better.
