I have experienced ice mode in my 350, C6, RX-8, you just get used to it.

I had 2 Rx8s and track them on a regular basis. Galiper would heat up, creating brake fade but the "Z ice mode" is different. I experienced it 2 times at the far end of a long braking zone where i needed extra braking, than "poof" no brakes at all... and the next corner was fine (which shouln'dt be the case if it was heat related). My theory does on ABS sensors recating funny when the rear will do not have enough road contact.
As said before, we may to adjust our driving styles accordingl until a solution is found...
