2010 Mazda RX-8

Pure Sports Car Verve Meets Four-Door Functionality
Significantly updated for 2009 with a refreshed exterior and interior design, enhanced performance and an R3 model for the ultimate driving enthusiast, RX-8 maintains the same great features for 2010, while refining a few simple touches. To better accommodate consumer demands, the 2010 RX-8 is available with two trim levels - Sport and Grand Touring - and the R3 model, specially designed with the enthusiast in mind. Unchanged is the core of the RX-8 - a high-powered, lightweight and perfectly balanced machine powered by the world-renowned twin-rotor RENESIS rotary engine.

Launched in 2003, the Mazda RX-8 hit the global market with a serious bang.

All together, Mazda has sold nearly 182,000 RX-8s around the world.
