Is the Mazda RX 8 R3 a good car?
At least we can all agree that ditching the RX-8’s ludicrous triangular anus was the best move Mazda’s made in years. I could make the RX-8”s interior perfect in 10 minutes– with a crow bar. Out goes the goofy stereo unit, most of the crummy plastic and the useless back seats.
Can you add premix to a Mazda RX 8?
Since the Mazda RX-8 burns oil, too, many owners add 2-stroke premix to their fuel, RX8Club forum users report.
