For 26K OTD, that is a pretty fun little package...if you can live with the chintzy interior.

As for a GT having the options that most people (I should have said enthusiasts) want, I was given a final OTD price of 32.5K
for a 5.0 with the 3.55 gears and some other random stuff). I don't care for stuff like HID's, and the spruced up interior trim and stereo bits. If you want all the goodies, you will get up to 38-39K pretty easily.

But this thread is about the RX-8 (a great handler that I wish had a bit more power), so I don't want to take away from it.
Ah, but did you spring for the Brembo package, which also includes lighter, 19 inch wheels, a mechanical limited slip, different suspension tuning, different traction control and stability control tuning, and bigger/more coolers? The stuff that you'd want if you planned on tracking/autocrossing?
