RX8 Owners Help advice

[fam]

Ive been a mustang guy but had a family as well as live in toledo (didnt have traction control but I here its pathetic on mustangs anyway; no stability control even offered). I had her for 3 years before getting a new 04 Mazda3 S hatch which i loved.

Anyway, I traded it for a mazda5 to make life easier for the wife and kid and I got stuck with her 05 3i....which I despise after having an S hatch....long story short: I want a sports car that I can drive in these crappy toledo weather...which seams to me I can either get a used (under 20k miles) RX8 or an almost new mustang (under 9k miles) for about the same price.

Im debating on picking up a lower mileage rx8

but I have questions as far as mileage is concerned, are they reliable up to 100k, since it has very few moving parts, what are the common problems,
Stability control is a godsend considering my non abs no tc background in a solid axle mustang, is it decent in the snow?

Your advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
