The RX line of performance cars is legendary for its unique rotary engine that uses two rotating triangle shaped rotors inside a cylindrical casing to generate power. With far fewer moving parts than a conventional piston engine, the rotary is easier to maintain while its compact size helps create a perfect 50/50 front to rear weight distribution, a major contributor to the RX-8's impressive handling. The RX-8's handling is otherworldly, amazingly neutral in the corners and completely predictable in rapid maneuvers. The RX-8 also has a unique body with forward facing rear half doors that allow access to a surprisingly roomy rear seat comprised of two bucket style seats divided by a wide center console. This set up allows you to have the look and performance associated with a high-end sport coupe, but the functionality of a two-door sedan. There is even a decent size trunk for when overnight trips beckon. The RX-8's stylish interior, great seats and marvelously precise transmission make it a delight to drive.
The RX-8 comes in Sport, Touring and Grand Touring trims. The Grand Touring RX-8 includes 4-wheel anti-lock brakes, front and rear ventilated disc brakes, power windows, locks and mirrors, AM/FM stereo with 6-disc CD changer, air conditioning, front side-impact airbags, cruise control, rear seat pass-through, side curtain airbags, steering wheel touch controls for audio and cruise, 18-inch alloy wheels, tilt wheel, tire pressure monitor, limited-slip differential, electronic traction and stability control, HID head lamps, fog lights, 300-watt Bose audio, power sunroof, advanced Keyless entry, heated side mirrors, heat leather seats, eight-way power driver's seat, and color-keyed synthetic leather door inserts.

44 Miatas engaged to spell happiness from above
Mon, 16 Jun 2014We've seen all manner of ways to propose marriage, from the usual candlelit dinner to the Jumbotron at the big game. A friend of ours recently proposed with his a barbershop quartet singing backup. But this has to be a new one - and one that automotive enthusiasts would probably find even more touching than a sky-writing biplane.
A member of the Miata.net forum recently asked other MX-5 enthusiasts to help him pop the big question to his bride-to-be. He got 31 Miatas together and needed just four more, but after appealing to his fellow roadster fans, over 40 turned up in the parking lot at the local high school.
The groom-to-be runs an aerial photography business and used an unmanned drone which his girlfriend thought would be shooting some local real estate properties when it flew over the parking lot and captured the image you see above with 44 little roadsters spelling out "Marry Me?" The answer, in case you were wondering, was a resounding "Yes!" How could she not, after all, when those Mazda convertibles are just so darn adorable? Now they'll just need to figure out what they'll be driving to the chapel on the big day.

Mazda CEO predicts record US sales in next 2 years
Mon, 18 Nov 2013The recently appointed CEO of Mazda is apparently quite the optimist, claiming that the Japanese brand, renowned for its Zoom-Zoom driving character (and more recently its sleek, refined designs and Skyactiv efficiency), is claiming the company will record its best-ever US sales within the next two years. According to a report from Automotive News, Masamichi Kogai expects Mazda to move 400,000 of its Kodo-styled vehicles in the increasingly competitive US market by March 2016, with the recently launched Mazda3 leading the charge. "It will impacted considerably by the trend of the U.S. industry. But... it's my hope we achieve the record by that time," Kogai tells AN.
The brand is currently targeting 300,000 units by the end of this fiscal year in March 2014. Given that production and sales of the Mazda3 (and consumer awareness of the 2014 Mazda6) is still picking up steam, it isn't a stretch to imagine Mazda, which sold 240,000 vehicles from January to October of 2013, hitting its target.
Along with the overall increase in sales numbers, Kogai is expecting the independent brand to take an even larger slice of the US sales pie, claiming 2.5 percent US market share, improving from its current 1.9-percent foothold so far in 2013. "I think the upper limit may be 2.5 percent for the time being," Kogai told AN, before pointing out, "We don't want to use a lot of incentives. That is not the sales approach we aspire toward."
