Purchased a 2004 RX8, drove it for 2 weeks and the clutch went on it. 300 km and the dealer stated that it was in need of a new clutch. Now they are saying 800 canadian dollars to replace the clutch. It has now been 3 weeks and I am trying to get the dealer to acknowledge the fact they advertised the clutch as new.

On paper you can’t really buy a better car for the money. For around £8000 you can buy a good looking coupe which seats four and drives extremely well, and with all the extras. However, the fuel consumption is a joke, thrash it and you will be lucky to get 13mpg. Also the heated seats, brakes and the traction control are pretty poor. I put my foot down recently on a wet day coming of a roundabout and the traction control kicked in after I had lost control and skidded onto the next lane - about three seconds too late. Luckily the roads were clear. Overall a nice car but in life you get what you pay for.

Mazda RX-8 230 2004

Great car if you want a personal account with your local petrol station... not that fast either. Anyone who claims 24+ MPG should either buy a Fiesta or get real, hammering it saw it drop to 11 MPG, with about 18 being average. Handled & looked great though, shame I got beat by Civic Type R’s... and mine was a 230 model.
