Mazda RX8 R3
For the ultimate in performance and sports-car design, Mazda presents the RX-8 R3. The 4-passenger RX-8 with "freestyle" doors comes with a 212 hp, 6-speed automatic transmission, or a 232 hp, 6-speed manual transmission with an aluminum and leather-wrapped shift knob. Adding more sporty style, the R3 has side sills, a rear wing spoiler, and 19-inch aluminum alloy wheels. For distinguishing luxury, treat yourself to a leather-wrapped steering wheel, a leather-wrapped parking brake, leather-trimmed seats, a 9-speaker Bose® Centerpoint® Surround System, an AM/FM/ 6-disc CD changer, and Bluetooth® capability. With all these luxuries, you might forget you’re driving a sports car. But with its thrilling, road-hugging ride, you won’t.
