You really should use the search function before asking.

6-speed automatic models are 2006 and later.

The difference is the transmission :) Automatic transmission (4, 6 speed) models have less power than the manual models (5 & 6 speed).

Only 2006+up Rx8 gets the 6AT Transmission. Its more powerful than the 4AT (4port Renesis) coz the 6AT gets the same 6port Intake Renesis engine thats fitted to the 6MT version.

4-AT = 189 HP
6-AT = 212 HP

5-MT = 189 HP
6-MT = 247 HP

--RX8Club.com

Due to gearing, the 5-MT will be faster than the 4-AT.

But many said (including the Mazda Bermaz sales guy) 4 speed auto is faster than the 6 speed auto on the RX-8 facelift.

Want fast, go manual. But RX8 is not a fast car that has absolute power to win over some turbo car (including wiralution which had proper installation and modification) on a straight road. You can have fun with the car but it will go back to the same answer, 6 speed manual else put a turbo kit on an AT.

The best way to tune a car is on a dynamometer, or dyno.

Having said that, it’s good to see that the most important part of this V8...
