We only have one new 2004 RX-8 left in stock. its priced a few hundred over invoice less the final pay incentive....oddly enough we have sold 3 used RX-8's for more money than the brand new RX-8. Goes to show you that some folks will pay more for a used one in the color they want vs. a new one in the color they don't like.

That is pure bologna...
the warranty starts the day the dealer reports the car sold to mazda....if the warranty has been started its because the dealer burned the RDR

 
I agree, but I don't think I have seen the acronym "RDR" used before. What does it stand for?
 
Thanks,
Dennis

are autos - all 6 spd. You need to learn to drive a manual. I wouldn't even think of owning this car in an auto tranny. It's super easy to shift - find someone to show you the basics and the rest is all trial and error. I hadn't driven a manual for about 4 years when I bought my 8 and every different car takes some getting used to.
 
Hey, i was curious as to what "RDR" meant as well.

Some of these dealers are such web bozos. On some of them I click on "current newspaper ad" and got all excited because they had a discount on 2004 8s. They would, since the ad was from a year ago when they had some

Know what you mean about websites.... by lhess

some of them go to all this trouble to do elaborate descriptions on cars, photos, contact names....and when you call about the car, they say, "Heck, we sold that car 6 months ago!" Then update your website!!! Autotrader is even bad for that (I realize Autotrader is not responsible for adding and removing, the sellers are), but you'd think they would want to make the most of their advertising dollars and get something they still own on the listings!!
 
For websites, I would prefer they just do a list of cars with colors, options, new/used, sticker price (at least gives you something to go on) and how to contact them. It's easy to update - delete a car, add a car. The pictures don't really do much for me - I already know what a red RX8 is gonna look like!!

Okay, i've been doin some autotrader browsing, and i found this:
 
2004 rx-8 AT, Grand Touring w/ spoiler, leather, sun roof etc. (no nav)
25,000 miles
for $22,025
 
Is that a good starting price for negotiation?

sorry about the lingo...RDR stands for Retail Delivery Report. Its the info sent to the manufacturer stating the car is sold, to whom, date, miles and how they paid. It triggers the warranty and any applicable incentives.
