Hi guys, I need your help asap please.

I might in a couple days purchase a 2004 Automatic RX8 for $7,800.

It seems to be in good condition and has 64,000 miles. I don't mind that it's an auto because I messed up my wrist in a motorcycle accident.

Would this be a good vehicle to buy for a summer car or even to flip?

I've heard there are issues with the engine and trans in the earlier models..

Thanks
