Default 2009 RX-8 review

Here's a comprehensive review on the 2009 Mazda RX-8, featuring lots of info, from design and performance, to history and competition of the RX-8. Also available is a photo gallery with the sports car.

"After almost eight years of production, the highly successful Mazda RX-8 will be reinvented in a completely new model. The original 2+2 doors coupe is expected to come with an all-new skin and refreshed “Zoom-Zoom” design in 2009. The dynamics are guaranteed to be better than ever for an RX model, featuring the latest generation of Mazda’s exotic Wankel rotary engine...."

yeah, that article is not valid. That is a concept car that is called the Kabura. It is going to use the Mx-5 platform!

That rocks. I don't care what car it is (although I am going to believe it is the RX8 because it looks like one. If it came with a hydrogen engine like the ad said that would so be my next purchase. That or an Audi TT.

Nice looking concept. I like the RX8. It's proof that you can make a performance car with 4 wheel independent suspension for less than 30 thousand despite Ford's claim to the contrary. Personally I think they just wanted to keep that cheap live axle suspension on the stang and still charge 30K for it. The only thing I wish is that they could make an RX8 that pulled hard out of the hole instead of having to wind it out in the RPM range to make power. Other than that I love everything about this car.
