  What is the minimum required to own this car?
  Interest rate?
  Sorry as I’m new to owning a car.
• By Izaruddin on Sep 12, 2008

  Minimum required? U mean salary? Should be more than RM5k i think so. Or make a lower loan amount. Interest rate should be around 3.5-3.60% for 9 Years loan for now.
• By John on Sep 13, 2008

  Thanks for the info!
  But could you discuss about lower loan amount?
  I’m a freelancer and have a salary of 3-5k per month
• By Izaruddin on Sep 14, 2008

  Lower loan means, loan amount apply to the bank should be around 85-80% from OTR price.
• By John on Sep 14, 2008

  Ic..
  As I know you have mentioned before,
  BerMaz do have an AP to bring in the
  RS version of this new Rx-8.

  But will the price still in the range of
  240k [authorised dealer] or lower like
  those “grey importer?”.

  Appreciate your info Iza!
• By kLutCh~ on Sep 14, 2008

  RM239k O_O

  I wish someone generous to buy for me this car ffs T_T
• By Izaruddin on Sep 15, 2008

  Yupe. Now BERMAZ is the Sole Distributor and AP Holder for authorized Mazda vehicle in Malaysia. Therefore they provide Sales and After Sales (Warranty & Services) for Mazda cars in Malaysia.

  About which version of RX-8 will be coming is not sure yet. But above is the estimated specs given.

  About the price, RM240k is the Launching-Promo price. Later the price will be increase. About grey importer ; as u can see in the market now, all the re-con RX-8 were the old face lift. Dunno if now got any grey importer already selling the new FL. But for sure, their RX-8 is not covered with Warranty and Services from Mazda Malaysia (BERMAZ).

  Hie,
  what do I need to do in order to make a booking and what is the advantages for me to book earlier (apart from the promo-price).
  Tq
• By Izaruddin on Sep 20, 2008

  Do make a booking, u come over and pass me ur booking fees in cheque, credit card or cash. The advantages for advance booking are :-

  1. All the color stated, unit are only 1-2 unit per color. So, early booking we can “Lock” the car for u.
  2. U will entitle to purchase it at Promo price although if a new higher price is out. This had happen before for several of our Mazda cars.
• By CK on Sep 26, 2008

  Hi, how much is the fees to book in advance?
  Tq
• By Izaruddin on Sep 27, 2008

  Booking fees is RM3000.00
• By Faiz on Oct 20, 2008

  I’d like to know though.. did BerMaz bring in the Type RS (or is it R3 version???)

  If yes then do let me know..

  Also the price of course.
• By Izaruddin on Oct 20, 2008

  I don’t think it is the RS version bro. To be exact BERMAZ bring in the RX-8 with the model code : FF56 AAE (Standard -Auto 6 Speed Specs). Specs u can view it on top. Price : RM 239,966.20 with insurance.

  Has more RX8 of other colors arrived in KL? Can upload photos of them? Want to see more real life shots of rx8 that arrived in KL… thanks.
• By Azhan on Oct 22, 2008

  Hi..

  I’m interested in owning an RX-8 officially from you (yeah.. it provided a good feeling owning one officially from official holder).

  However looks like you don’t officially bring in the Type RS / R3.

  Doesn’t matter..

  Let say I insist of getting the Type RS / R3 from you (it kinda sucks getting one from grey importers.. not a good idea).. can you arrange it??

  I am willing to pay for the price as long as it is reasonable.

  You see.. I am currently driving a Satria GSR as my weekend car and I personally hated auto tranny.

  Have done my research and from what I can gather.. normal facelifted RX-8 only sports around 213HP as opposed to the Type RS / R3 which sports around 232+ HP. Not the fastest among other sports car.. but the quality ride it provided makes me hooked with the car. It will be a shame if the only one I can get is only auto tranny.

  So?

  Will be waiting for your feedback.. and thanks a lot guys for bringing in the RX-8 officially.

  You rocks..

  P.S: yeah.. I know I like speed and power.. but please don’t recommend me 350Z. It handles like a truck.. seriously.. not my cup of tea.
• By Izaruddin on Oct 24, 2008

  Yupe, the Zoom Zoom factor that excite the driver compare to our competitors

  About ur request for type RS/R3 or even GT, at this moment management is focusing with this launching model. Special order and so on is very hard to be done. Bermaz is the Sole Distributor of Mazda in Malaysia. Unlike re-con companies, they can order any model even for 1 unit only (used or new, new which bought from Japan car dealer/shop not Mazda Japan). Bermaz need to order what is in the agreement/policy between Bermaz and Mazda Japan and should be by quantity not only 1 unit. Pricing factor is also an issue for the high specs version.
• By Azhan on Oct 29, 2008

  I see.. thanks for the heads up bro.

  I think I’ll give the chance to Mazda Malaysia first.. will hold on my plan to get a new sports car until at least October next year.

  See if you do bring in the R3 / Type RS. And if you do.. for sure I will be the first one to book from you.

  If you didn’t bring it in by that time.. then I guess I’ll just have to stick with grey importers (which I really hated.. considering my past experience with them a couple of months before when I was buying my father a Caldina.. customer service to the lowest point of earth).

  Who knows.. Mazda might even released a new Mazdaspeed version at that time.. and for sure.. I’ll get that instead of the Type RS / R3 LOL..

  Paultan.org posted a price of RM223,699 OTR w/o insurance. Is there a discount?
• By Izaruddin on Nov 3, 2008

  Are there options for bodykits that I could order during purchase? How much would the bodykits cost?

  You mentioned sometime back the deposit is RM3K, is that still the same today?

  Thanking you in advance.
• By Izaruddin on Mar 31, 2009

  Car stocks should be no problem. Depends on which color. Process to deliver the car should be around 5-10 working day depends on which color. If u are taking the S.Silver, interior should be all black.

  Hi,

  Can you email me new offers for the RX8. Thank you
• By Darren on Jul 31, 2009

  Hi Izaruddin,
  A few question here that i would like to ask.
  1. Are all the RX8 that sell in Malaysia type E version?
  2. If the exterior color of the car is white, what color would the interior be? Because i prefer black interior than beige interior.
  3. Is Bermaz planning to bring in the type RS or R3 version?
• By Izaruddin on Aug 4, 2009

  Hi Darren,
  The current RX-8 we are selling is the Facelift FE Standard Version. Is the RX-8 color is Pearl White, the interior will be Beige color including the leather seats. If Red, then inside also Red. If other color, interior should be all black. No info of Bermaz bring in the type RS or R3.
• By azlan on Oct 25, 2009

  hmm how come it so expensive?it just same with recon made that around 150k below…i cant afford this price…sad man…
• By Izaruddin on Nov 3, 2009

  Hi Azlan,
  Bro, those re-con company selling were the old facelift of RX-8. We are selling the NEW Facelift of RX-8. Furthermore, our RX-8 is fully warranty by Mazda Malaysia and Japan.
• By Elvin on Nov 16, 2009
