in my view the rx8 is high on looks but full of niggles in the electrics. also in wet weather the back end tends to lose grip and sway to the side it can also be problematic from cold start example engine tends to flood. my biggest concern is the poor fuel consumption. apart from all that i like it it has room for four passengers and for a sports coupe it has four doors. it also has good take off speed and corners well and on motorway driving you dont get to much noise from outside. italso has abs and traction control and comes with an electronic tilt and slide sunroof. all in all a lot of car for your money. so if you are in the market for a good sleek sports car you cannot go far wrong with the mazda rx8
