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 is trading at a median price of $14,991 AUD in the Australian market, though the shallow sample of only two tracked sales over the past twelve months limits confidence in establishing a firm directional trend.

Liquidity remains a significant constraint for the model in this region. With only two sales tracked and zero active listings currently recorded, the RX-8 presents a buyer's market but one where finding either a willing seller or suitable inventory requires patience and persistence.

The RX-8 occupies the stable modern classic category, reflecting its place as a rotary-engined coupe from the 2000s–2010s era that has begun to accumulate collector interest. As a production vehicle with limited historical rarity, desirability is currently rated low, suggesting the bulk of the market comprises drivers rather than enthusiasts seeking specific examples.

Average mileage figures for transacted cars are not available from the limited transaction data, making it difficult to establish norms for condition assessment or pricing relativities on the basis of use.

Without sufficient historical transaction density or forward-looking signals in the data, credible three- or five-year price projections cannot be reliably estimated at this time. The RX-8's market trajectory in Australia will likely depend on broader enthusiasm for rotary engines and the model's status among Japanese car collectors as it continues to age.
