A Spirited Spin in the 2004 Mazda RX-8

There’s something unmistakably bold about the 2004 Mazda RX-8. From the moment I set eyes on its sleek red exterior and deep black interior, I knew this car wasn’t just another coupe—it was engineered with personality. With only 33,400 miles, this low-mileage gem blends rotary-powered performance with a rare style that turns heads and rewards drivers who crave something out of the ordinary.

Design That Defies the Decades

Sporty from Every Angle

Even in 2025, the RX-8’s silhouette still looks fresh. The sweeping curves, compact profile, and unique rear-hinged half-doors offer both aesthetic appeal and surprising practicality. In this particular example, the Red exterior shines with confidence and energy, while the Black interior creates a cockpit-like vibe that pulls you right into the driving experience.

I’ve seen a lot of vehicles come and go, but few age as gracefully as this one. It’s not trying to be flashy—it just is.

Rotaries and Rev Limits

A Signature Mazda Powertrain

While the specific engine details weren’t provided, all 2004 RX-8s were known for their rotary engine, offering something completely different from your average piston-driven setup. Lightweight, high-revving, and thrilling to operate, the RX-8 delivers engaging performance whether you’re shifting through corners or merging onto the highway. This one comes equipped with an automatic transmission, making it ideal for those who want sporty flair without the demands of a manual.

Even after all these years, this RX-8 delivers the punchy acceleration and precise handling that made it a standout in its class. The balance of power and control reminds me why rotary engines still have such a loyal fanbase.

Comfort That Keeps Up

Interior That Surprises

Step inside and you’ll find a clean, focused cabin that’s all about the drive. The seating is supportive and sporty without sacrificing comfort, and the black interior gives it a premium, minimalist edge. You wouldn’t expect this level of refinement from a 2004 coupe, but the RX-8 makes sure you feel like you’re in something special every time you climb in.

Space is surprisingly generous for a two-door—thank those rear-hinged doors—and everything from the layout of the controls to the fit and finish just feels right.

Value That Speaks Volumes

A Rare Find with Low Miles

Let’s be honest—finding a 2004 Mazda RX-8 with just 33,400 miles is rare. That mileage alone adds major value to this car, but when paired with the strong condition and standout color combo, it becomes something even better: a smart buy for someone who knows what they’re looking for. At $11,400, this RX-8 represents a unique mix of affordability, style, and performance that’s getting harder to find in today’s market.

If you’re a driving enthusiast—or just someone who appreciates vehicles with character—this Mazda is the kind of machine you don’t hesitate on.
