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.

    This is the most fun Ive ever had in any of my new cars. Its been 2-1/2 months and I still love it as much as the day I bought it. So does my family. A reliable, fun, attractive sports car that is also comfortable & practicle was hard to find before the 8. Im pleased with my decision.

    Super fun to drive, like driving a motorcycle on four wheels. Smooth, powerful, good looking, and functional. I can enjoy a true roadster ride and take along 3 other guests.

    When you need a sudden increase in speed it doesnt do the job. After being washed the car is hard to start. Otherwise its so stylish..Oh and gas mileage with high-test isnt the greatest.

    The 2004 Mazda RX-8 is an awesome car. It looks good, it feels good and the drive is unbelievable. It handles the road better than any sports car Ive ever driven. I also like the fact that even though it is a sports car, it is very "driver friendly". I dont feel unsafe nor do I feel overwhelmed by the car. I would say to anyone who is contemplating purchasing this vehicle "zoom zoom zoom"! You wont regret it.

  • You gotta drive one to understand! - 2004 Mazda RX-8

    This car drives beautifully and looks absolutely killer with all available aero packages and spoiler. Mine is sunlight silver metallic which is a good choice for the Florida sun. In response to someone saying the floormat slips under their feet. There is an anchor under the drivers seat and riveted hole in the floor mat to prevent this.

  • Most fun you can have with a family! - 2004 Mazda RX-8

    great car extremely fun to drive, and beautiful to look at, only TRUE sports car you can own and have a family at the same time.

  • Car with Personality - 2004 Mazda RX-8
    By -

    When the lights blink at me when I say "Hello" with my keyless entry, I have to smile. Driving this car has brought me nothing but pleasure. From the way it feels sitting in the drivers seat, to the looks it gets at every red-light, Im in love with my car. Have yet to pull alongside a Mustang GT or Corvette, and not have them feel the need to prove themselves.
