I have seen the worst... RX-8... ever!!!

I think yellow is ok but this yellow RX-8 has fender strakes and chrome fuel cover. Very unclean. With black leather inside and guess what ... red leather hand brake and centre box cover... :vomit:

I am sure he is not in this forum coz we all have taste... then again the owner is busy gambing... coz I saw the 8 in the VIP carpark at Crown

Nice Rosso I think you can pack a stack of RX8club cards and hand them out to the RX-8 owner you see...

Saw Black RX-8 this morning on the Sydney to Newcastle Freeway heading north. Had 3 strakes on each side! and rotary crest front and back - very nice. Turned off the freeway at Calga Exit.

Saw my first Nordic Green today: a display car the Armidale Mazda dealer bought down for our Walcha show.
If I was interested in black (which living in the bush I'm not)
I think I would choose the green. It is SO conservative it has a character all of its own.

brat- your black is awesome esp the way that it blends into the non colour coded parts of the 8, the gf is pushing me to get the crest after seeing yours and ur rotary start button rocks I should have given it a push

Hi Gomez, had the WB on order from day one and extremely happy with the purchase even if I had to wait 3 months for delivery especially after seeing it at the Sydney motor show. Had everything planned out including buying plenty of things from Japan. Wanted to do custom leather interior (black blue) and rear mazdaspeed wing. Ended up getting black with black/red interior last minute at a good deal and went for my original decision (wife hated the idea of another black car)

Phamda, all easy and relatively cheap to do. Let me know if you need help. Nice s2k too, loved the drive from Bris to Syd in it, that is the reason why I had to have the start button when we were on the Gold Coast buying petrol and saw that beast come to life with it.

Since owning a RX8 i have been seeing them at least every 2 days.

Saw a Red 1 today on Elizabeth drive with crests and spoiler. I waved (and what do you know he waved back). Red Number plates.
