im not looking for a prius, but if im going to waste 16mpg id like alot more then 232hp. In a M3 you'll get the same miles per gallon and get about 100+more hp

1.3L 228hp.. put in a nice turbo and it reach 500hp :)
if u want economic and less problematic car why don u drive a toyota which is known for its reliability.. mazda is known for its rotary and rotary is easy on ur wallet cause cheaper road tax :)

I've got 24,500 miles on my 07 rx8 GT with zero issues. Not one functional or mechanical issue to date. As far as fuel mileage goes I average 19-20 mpg in mixed driving, however 23 is easy to achieve on the highway. Worst ever mileage was 15.6 with lots of low gear cruising,redlining, and high speed runs.

i absolutely love this car...except i herd its plagued with problems, my friend had his engine pulled at 12k and numerous other issues, i've read reviews and said its very unreliable not to mention that 15mpg (from what owners have recorded) isnt the most fuel efficient....only if it was better made this car would be in my driveway!

I thought the 1.3L would help lower the cost but it doesn't. They do classify it as 2.6, which is fcking stupid. But get a vin # and call around to many dif insurance companies.
