A VARIATION ON AN ALREADY JAW-DROPPING THEME.
The Mazda RX-8 R3 is the most distinctive and dynamic performer in the RX-8 family. Factory upgrades include an aggressively sculpted front end,
sleek side sill extensions and rear wing spoiler. Outstanding control and a tenacious grip testify to R3's torque-sensing limited-slip differential and
larger 19-inch forged alloy wheels fi tted with sticky 225/40R19 W-Speed-Rated rubber. Superior handling, tracking and damping are served up by the
R3's high-performance suspension tuned around four formidable Bilstein ® shock absorbers. Inside, it's equally impressive. High-bolstered Recaro
front bucket seats, exclusive to the R3, support driver and front passenger. A Bose ® 9-speaker Centerpoint
out music that is sharp in detail and rich in emotion. And, for the perfect balance of performance and technology, we made Bluetooth
hands-free phone connectivity and Mazda's Advanced Keyless Entry & Start System part of the mix.

Ergonomically designed, racing-inspired Recaro front
bucket seats are exclusive to the R3. Their high-bolster
design helps maintain an ideal driving position while
providing added support by holding torso, shoulder
and hip areas more securely in place.
