Seansene 1st Gear August 2, 2004 Share August 2, 2004 I think they meant 15.8l/100km Not when they lumped it under 'fuel sippers' Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoppe Clutched August 2, 2004 Share August 2, 2004 hehe, no wonder my neighbour Mediacorp Michelle seldom drives her RX8 out. Maybe no money for petrol. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vamp Neutral Newbie August 2, 2004 Share August 2, 2004 hmm...maybe news of the 5km/l FC is scaring buyers off. 5km/L is probably a rumour that had been going round the net exaggerating the facts. Most owners claim it is between 8 to 12 km/l, depending on their driving pattern. This 1.3L (RX-8) is comparable in performance with the 3.5L Nissan Fairlady (which is more expandive in road tax, car price and insurance). Add to that, Honda Integra and Toyota Celica would probably eat dust against this car, not to mention the better exterior and interior finishing. With these range of cars to compare, fuel consumption cannot be the same as a Toyota Corolla lah.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoppe Clutched August 2, 2004 Share August 2, 2004 hehe, want me to put your particulars on her windscreen? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vamp Neutral Newbie August 2, 2004 Share August 2, 2004 now many RX8 on the Road compare to Z350, mayb due to difference in ROAD TAX? Well, think the Z350's sales is almost non-existent. If u use June 04's statistics from LTA (ie. onemotoring) as a yardstick, there isn't any Z350 sold at all.... YES! Not even ONE!!! In the meantime, PIs and Mazda are still rolling out RX-8s. U can draw ur own conclusion from there.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkLord 1st Gear August 2, 2004 Share August 2, 2004 Still beyond me... In Singapore... Australia selling for 50+K niaz! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vamp Neutral Newbie August 2, 2004 Share August 2, 2004 Many new RX8s seems to be advertised for $121k frm PI lately. If i recall correctly, it used to go for abt $135-$145k. Anyone knows what's the catch?? Mazda Singapore brings in the top end Type S with 6 speed manual gear, factory fitted leather electronic seats, 18" sports rims, sports suspensions, better brake discs etc. All these add to the OMV which adds to the car price after all the taxes. Apart from competition from Mazda SIngapore, PIs are not bring in this model and are bringing in the lower end models. On top of that, u need to check that their price includes GST, road tax and any other misc charges etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vamp Neutral Newbie August 2, 2004 Share August 2, 2004 If u pay $50K in Aussie, u have to pay another $100K to Singapore government as taxes and COE. That's life dude..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoppe Clutched August 2, 2004 Share August 2, 2004 i c... so PI RX8 is of lower spec. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vamp Neutral Newbie August 2, 2004 Share August 2, 2004 Yup... but nevertheless still a much better car that a lot of competitors' cars. If u could see the car, the interior and get to drive it, u will know what I mean.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vamp Neutral Newbie August 2, 2004 Share August 2, 2004 Nope... just did 3 months of research on what car to get... the RX-8 is among m final shortlist now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
