RX 8 .. . Problem already !!

It definitely could be something else, but honestly there isn't much that goes wrong with these that isn't an internal engine problem, and the symptoms don't line up with an internal engine problem. Usually when there's an internal issue the engine won't start.

AF, since it's an undesirable color, I'll give you $1500 for it. Deal?

I was pretty close to getting an '06. It's distant past, but I remember 04 and even 05's having teething issues that I wanted to avoid. One of those was a no-start if you only run it a short period and shut it off, but that wasn't the sole offender.

$2000 sounds generous.

(Hope you paid less)

I had a 2005 back in the day and am aware of that start issue, if I recall you just rev the car to around 4K rpm's and then shut down at that rpm to avoid a no start problem. I never ran into that issue though I did sell the car after a year with only 4K miles.
