This Year's Model Updates:

The RX-8 is an all-new car for 2004. Its arrival marks the return of Mazda's rotary engine to the U.S. market. Priced less than Nissan's 350Z, the RX-8 also offers four doors and a usable backseat.

Pros:
  • Low base price, agile handling yet still comfortable enough for daily use, room for four in a pinch.
Cons:
  • Option packages can get expensive, iffy interior ergonomics.

  • Loving to Drive - 2004 Mazda RX-8
    By -

    I had been impatiently waiting for a couple months for the car to be available in my area. I have only had my RX-8 for two weeks, but it has been wonderful. The styling is close to exotic and I get lots positive comments about its looks. The performance is just what I expected, handles better than a porche, but not so fast that you will drive over your head easily.

    The car handles like a dream...and the interior is beautiful. Great attention to detail...the Rotary symbol can be found throughout the car and quality is top notch!

  • Riding in a dream! - 2004 Mazda RX-8

    The title says it all. From the moment I thought of buying one, I kept dreaming of what it would be like to drive behind the wheel of a red, with black/red interior RX8. The answer, its a dream.

  • I LOVE THIS CAR!!! - 2004 Mazda RX-8

    This is my favorite car ever, and i have loved it since the second i bought it. I love how it handles every turn so smoothly and i love just turning down the music and listening to the sound of the rotary motor just spinning away. It is so peaceful just to sit there listening to it i could almost fall asleep. This car IS a dream come true.

    Get the manual because it has more power than the automatic although it is more expensive. The hadling is beautiful and is roomy in the front of the car, but the back can get a little cowded if you are taller than six feet.

  • Best car yet - 2004 Mazda RX-8
    By -

    I bought this car over the Internet sight unseen several months ago. After I picked it up, I realized that it exceeded all of my expectations. The only minor gripe I have is gas mileage but it is a psorts car and I tend to drive it a little more aggresively so i guess thats to be expected. People stop me on the street just to look at it. It is like a piece of art.
