2007 Mazda RX-8 Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Overall, owners of the 2007 Mazda RX-8 love the fun driving experience and excellent handling, especially during cornering. They appreciate the car's unique rotary engine and sporty appearance. However, many drivers are concerned about its fuel economy and somewhat high pricing for the performance offered. Additionally, the lack of low-end torque can be frustrating."
One of the best handling cars ever built. If you like the NC Miata but want more space, you won't sacrifice the driving experience by going to an Rx8(Other than the roof) By this time in 2025, people have solved all of the reliability issues, it just takes a little research. Probably not a car for someone less mechanically inclined, if you can't do your own work it may be an experience endeavor.
December 7, 2025Lots of power coming from a very compact and light 13B rotary engine
May 8, 2008Simply one of the best cars ever. It is my personal drift car... Sharp steering, fine tuned suspension, fairly fast, great noise, well equiped, well built, extremely good value for money... On the downside its fuel consumption could bring you to your knees...plus there is a lack of torque in the 1000-5000 rpm band not allowing low rev drift from the get-go...

November 20, 2009Impressive 9 speaker, 300W Bose stereo with 6 cd, contoured seats, freestyle doors, short shifter. Just an amazing car that is fun to drive and the rotary engine hums a unique sound!
July 7, 2008This package has a lack in acceleration because the fact that is a 4 port. braking is nicely done handling is amazing probably the best one out there if you compare this car to a mustang you'll know what I'm talkin' 'bout. To tell you the truth it is very funto drive im not gonna lie because this car takes corners like there is no tomorrow. Try it, and see for you self :)
April 10, 2012This is a fun car to drive and handles very well. Compact look but the interior is exceptionally roomy. The suicide style back doors make all the difference and give this car a unique appearance as well. Style, Comfort and handling.
February 25, 2014Nice handling, nice low seating position, nice interior, needs low-end torque. You notice the lack of low end torque even if you haven't been driving a more powerful car previously.
January 12, 2008Don't know why folks complain about performance, this is NOT a slow car, under 6.5 secs to 60 is pretty good. However it doesn't feel, sound or behave like a piston engine, so you have to reprogram your brain to drive in the appropriate way for a rotary. The cornering is amazing. Fuel economy is terrible, but you buy it for fun not economy.
January 3, 2010It has room for 2 adults and 2 kids a decent sized trunk. it has a smooth, high winding engine, a nice 6-speed and limited slip rear wheel drive. And it handles like a race car. Its lots of fun to drive and easy to live with
August 19, 2009The car handeled like a champion. The ride was so smooth sometimes you would forget you where even in a sports car. I treated this car like it was my baby. Really hate to let it go. But family is more important.
