2009 Mazda RX-8 Review:
RX-8 is still the best performing, short-range sports car for everyday driving.
The suicide doors are driving me nuts. This is a sports car, not a family car. It would be better to make it just a two-seater, rather than creating these extra doors that looks ridiculous.
Other than that, I love RX-8.

Pros: What do you like about 2009 Mazda RX-8?
The more I drive it the more I am amazed by its handling prowess--I have yet to reach its limit.
Smart styling.
Engine purr.
Cons: How would you improve 2009 Mazda RX-8?
Sun visors came out of an econobox. Has no side extensions so useless when sun is at right angles.
Door spring latch will not hold door open as door often rebounds back.
Should have trip computer and speed sensing auto door locks--all the electronics and sensors are there so why not.
2009 Mazda RX-8 Review:
Overall a great car that has some small minor glitches the keep it from being a truly fantastic car.
