The build of the RX-8 emerged as one of the weaker elements of the car. While I like the shorter front doors and easy access that the rear suicide doors offer, I found that I sometimes had to repeatedly close the front doors to get a secure fit. I’m not sure if this was poor design or assembly, but it did not offer the reassuring thunk of a solidly built and securely closed door. Also, there was a rattle on the dashboard plastic that occasionally expressed itself around 40 mph. A minor issue, but a major irritant for an owner of a brand new car (our test vehicle already had 6,700 miles rolled up by previous journalists). The vast majority of my RX-8 experience did suggest intelligent design and proper assembly, but I found this car behind the competition in build quality.
