Premiums compare the median price of sales with each option against comparable sales without it, mined from verified auction listings. Prices are adjusted to the model's median mileage before comparing. Sales are pooled across markets on a relative-price basis, so exchange rates and market levels can't skew the split. Options interact in ways a one-at-a-time split can’t capture — treat each premium as directional rather than gospel.
Marque analyst note
The Mazda RX-8 sits at a median price of $6,700 in the current US market, with no meaningful directional signal from the limited transaction data available over the past year.
Liquidity remains thin, with only six sales tracked over the past twelve months and ten total in the sample. This sparse transaction volume suggests that buyers and sellers should expect extended search times and limited negotiating leverage in either direction.
The RX-8 occupies the stable modern classic category, classified as collectible with moderate desirability. These cars are typically transacted with around 56,700 miles on the odometer, suggesting a market focused on relatively well-preserved examples rather than high-mileage service vehicles.
The three- and five-year outlook projects the median to hold flat at $6,700 with no percentage appreciation expected. This stability reflects the car's established niche status without strong momentum drivers pushing values meaningfully higher or lower.
