Car subscription with this car

If a car by the month is the plan, the 2005 Mazda RX-8 is worth a look; here is why. There is no long contract: stop at the end of any booking. One booking runs up to 365 days and renews with a new agreement.

Under the hood

The engine is the 1.3L 2-cylinder, with rear-wheel drive and a 4-speed automatic. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.

Plan on about 39 litres per 300 km; the combined rating is 13.1 L/100 km. A 300 km weekend costs about $68.79 in energy at our price setting.

Good uses for the RX-8

It suits commuters, couples and business trips. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.

Living with the RX-8

Being a small car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. In plain terms, its 227 litres of luggage space hold about a large suitcase and a couple of soft bags.

Can I rent it?

Ask for your dates, and we reply with what we can offer. This exact car is not in our fleet at the moment; a request asks us to look for one. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now. Delivery is priced by distance in your offer, and pickup from us is free.

What we need from you

Ontario G2 or G licence holders aged 18 and up can request a car. There is no maximum age. Drivers under 26 pay a young driver fee each day. Bring the card in your name that paid for the booking.

Third-party liability is in the rate; for the car, bring OPCF 27, use your card's benefit, or add the CarmaCars Protection Plan. A deposit applies to every rental. It is shown on the car's page and taken about 1 hour before pickup. Every renter goes through the same check of licence and identity before the car is confirmed.

The booking steps

Start with a request. Choose the car, the pickup time and the return time, and send it without paying anything. An offer follows, with the car we confirm and the full price for your dates. An offer is valid for 24 hours, and you pay only when you approve it.

Each listing shows the daily, weekly and monthly rate of that car. For longer stays, each booking of up to 365 days renews with a new agreement. Requests for later the same day work when there are at least 2 hours to spare.

Ready when you are

Send a request with your dates, and we will come back with an offer.
