Mazda RX-8: How do you open the back doors?

Question

I love this cars sleek design, but every time i come across it, it is labeled as a 4-door car.

I can see there is a place for the back doors but are the door handles missing? Do you need to open them from inside the car, or am I missing something?

Answer 1

The door handles are right inside the car, hiding behind the front doors - you cannot open them without opening the front doors first.

Open the front doors, you'll see them - they're black plastic, if I remember.

It's not REALLY a 4-door car - I think that's kind of a stretch. It's more of a 2+1/2+1/2 door car, or a 2+2 coupe :-D

Answer 2

Open the front doors first and the handle is in the door jamb for the rear ones because they open backwards you can only ever open them once the front ones are open.

Answer 3

Open the front door first, then you see a handle for a back door.

The back door must be closed before you close the front door.

Answer 4

on the front edge

Answer 5

You have to open the front doors first and pull that handle next to the door seal.

You can see it on the edge of the rear door here
