Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit (2010)[]
The RX-8 appears in Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit (2010) as a Sports Series racer vehicle, and as an SCPD Traffic Police unit.
The racer vehicle is unlocked upon the player earning a total of 5,000 racer bounty. The SCPD unit is unlocked upon the player earning a total of 10,000 cop bounty.
It is possibly the fastest car in the Sports Series whilst at the same time being the best handling car in both the Sports and Traffic Police Series. It possesses good acceleration, agility, excellent drifting capability, and extremely powerful nitrous. It isn't as durable as other Sports Series cars and thus is most useful in races.
It can be selected with either an Aurora Blue Mica, Velocity Red Mica, Sparkling Black Mica, or a Liquid Silver Metallic body paint colour.
