I am selling my wifes 2005 Mazda RX8. It is has appr 87,000 kms, manual trans, full leather interior , Navigation, Bose sound, and is fully optioned. When we purchased the car new, we also bought a set of MazdaSpeed wheels at a cost of over $12,000. and that's just for the wheels alone. The new tires have only 5000 kms on them. The RX8 was never winter driven and was insured for the summer just yesterday.

It still has an extended warranty.. I have all of the original service documentation, reciepts and articles on the RX8

This is one of the finest RX8's you will ever find. Never smoked in and, fact she has only had people in the back seat twice.

You won't find a nicer car. We are open to any reasonable offer.

ahahaha 12k for those wheels...as others have said. the damn wheels will prob run u around 4k max. their about 650-750 each depending where you go. even if you get the magnesium version of it will be nowhere near that amount.

lol what a joke. Summer only car? Owner must be driving back and forth to Vegas every weekend in the summer. Most 04s from dealers (aka overpriced) are in the 15s, so means he wants you to buy the rims and you get a free car?

Mazdaspeed RX-8 magnesium wheels were indeed about $3,000/each, at some point in time. It looks like it has dropped in price a bit now though...

There's also a forged aluminum version and they look nearly identical and are a bit cheaper.
