I have owned my RX7 for 17 years. The last 3 it has been off the road. I took it off the road at a little over 83K on the original motor. It needed to be painted and a coolant seal let go. The car has never left me stranded and never flooded. Mine was stock all this time so I think that may have something to do with it. Mine is in the process of being completely redone. I look forward to it being on the road in 2010. Great cars. Yes they require more maintanance but in my opinion they are worth it. I have no experience with the RX8 but know many people who had flooding issues with the 04 annd 05's. Mazda has since fixed those issues and any new RX8 should be very reliable and function well.
