Description
Canadian car with clean title, located in Toronto, Ontario. Speedometer/odometer/temperature gauges are digital so you can switch from Km to Miles with the press of a button. Dealer maintained since brand new, excellent condition with no dents. No accidents or paintwork. Never winter driven. Garage kept. Everything is original, no modifications, never raced/tracked. Very clean inside and out. Still has the new car smell! Needs absolutely nothing. Comes with transferable Mazda Canada Extended Warranty until 2016. Owned by a rotary RX7 and RX8 enthusiast. I'm considering selling it because I don't really have the time to drive it these days but will gladly keep it if I don't get my price.
The R3 version was introduced for the 2009 year model. The R3 package added improved suspension over the base model by adding Bilstein shock absorbers and a foam filled front crossmember to improve rigidity. The R3 also came with 19-inch BBS forged aluminum-alloy wheels and high performance tires. On the exterior, the R3 had a different, lower front bumper sporting a splitter, lower side sills, and a standard rear spoiler. There is a pair of special Recaro seats up front, along with the same 300-watt Bose audio system, Bluetooth, HID headlights, and Mazda advanced keyless entry and start system. No electric sunroof was offered in the R3 model.
In 2009, Mazda engineers improved the RX-8 body rigidity through the addition of structural reinforcements, by adding a trapezoidal shock tower brace and enhancing the local rigidity of the front suspension tower areas. The rear suspension geometry was revised for better handling, and the final drive gear ratio on manual transmission cars was shortened from 4.444 to 4.777 for improved off-the-line performance. While minimal, these performance changes gave the updated RX-8 increased acceleration and performance, as well as even greater responsiveness to the accelerator pedal. Mazda claimed that the updated (2009–2012) RX-8 was a significantly faster car than the previous (2004–2008) model car due to the lower weight, lowered gearing, and improved suspension. The Renesis II motor iteration that launched with the 2009 model year included a third oil injection port in each rotor housing, making this their first all new EMOP (Electric Metering Oil Pump) with a total of 6 lubrication injectors, plus an all new engine oil pump.
This is the cleanest R3 model in the market. Odometer as of today reads 21,205miles or 34,000kms. This car may be driven lightly until auction end so final mileage will vary. I have the right to end this auction at any time if the car sells locally. Thanks for looking!
