I've been looking at buying a 2009 RX8 R3 with 60,000 miles on it. The dealer did a compression test, and the engine failed, so they're getting a reman from Mazda.
The dealer is asking $14K.
A buddy of mine tells me that this (reman engine) is fantastic news, and I should jump on it. But should I actually be concerned about the vehicle since it required a new engine? I mean, does the fact that it needs this new engine suggest that the vehicle may need other serious work?
Or should I be happy that this car will have what amounts to a new engine?
And my other question (and my subject line): If you had your druthers, and all other things being equal, would you rather buy an RX8 with a healthy, original engine or one with a reman engine?
