I think we want the pre-facelift RX-8 back. Also, include the standard 2006 RX-8 (known as Type S in Japan)

In the future, I’d like to see this model updated to the 2012 Mazda RX-8 Spirit R.

We’ve got the facelift currently, we used to have the Mazdaspeed, but how about bringing the latter back together with a standard pre-facelift model? Just look at this thing, it looks so neat.

[SugaredFlyer665]

We so need the OG RX8 back, and with functioning rear hinged doors

[Runoff1999]

Agreed.

I wish at least the body kit would let you choose between before and after face lists.

I need a Spirit R. The most mature final model deserves respect.
