RX-8 is cool car for sure! I almost bought one, but got an S2000 instead. I do not think I made a mistake although I think I have tinnitus from DD/commuting the S2k with all the wind noise...
If you get the RX-8, just bear in mind that there is a much greater likelihood of the engine expiring. The FT86 has similar driving dynamics, is quite a bit lighter-weight, and will get nearly 50% better fuel mileage, won't burn oil, similar acceleration performance, BRZ with leather/alcantara interior is about as "nice" as RX-8 interior, never gonna "flood" on you, will generally be less prone to bad or inconvenient drama.
FT86 seems to be the obvious choice.
But if you find a good deal on a good RX-8 that speaks to you and can handle potential issues including car possibly going out of commission for a while, feel free to give it a try!
