"The RX8 Sport AT is the perfect choice for drivers who want the smooth power of a rotary engine. The AT's RENESIS engine cranks out 197-horsepower and the 4-speed Sport AT automatic allows for manual shifting using either the shift lever or steering wheel mounted paddles. It also features standard four-wheel ventilated disc brakes with ABS, side air bags and side air curtains. The Sport Package adds bonuses like fog lamps and Xenon headlights. The 6-speed is pure sports car with performance items like limited-slip differential, sport-tuned suspension and 18-inch alloy wheels that accommodate larger brakes. Sport, Touring and Grand Touring packages add more comfort and convenience by adding features like fog lights, moonroof, custom Bose® audio system and leather seats."
