Okay...lets just put it this way. If you are not on the waiting list add $5000 to every price! Need I mention what happened to the 350z? All the sticker prices were in the high 30's. So......you are going to pay alot of overhead just to get one. Wait till the 2005 comes out. That way they can fix all the problems with the first batch and you have time to get on a list!

under 30k, but thas for the first year. then the prices will escaled till the point that some governmet agency is gonna say the rx-8 consumes to much gas just like the opec oil crisis that almost killed the rx7. Now with this iraq bullshit theyre gonna try to **** us over

That's true.. but that's what the RX-8 is suppose to be about.. having all the kinks already worked out from the last rotary.. to show off the power and performance of what they're really capable of..
