Mazda RX8 handling is otherworldly on the plus side, amazingly neutral in the corners as well as completely predictable in rapid maneuvers. The RX-8 has also unique body forward facing rear half doors that allow access to a surprisingly roomy seat which is comprised of 2 bucket style seats divided by wide center console.
The setup of this car allows you to have the great look and wonderful performance is associated with a high-end sports coupe. Even a decent size trunk is also included in this sports car for when overnight trips beckon. The Mazda RX-8 stylish interior such as marvelously precise manual transmission and great sets make it delight to drive.
