Girlfriend bought me the 1:18 black rx-8 for X'mas. Detailing is great. You can even pry open the engine cover to have a look at the rotaries... Should consider getting one. Will look great in your study/living room/office...

the black rx-8 comes in both LHD and RHD. gf ordered one online with the black/red interior in RHD a couple of months back.. 1/18 scale. So if Nikko doesnt have it, autoart direct is another option.

Hey bros, the guys at Nikko are quite easy going... just ask for a discount and they'll give you 20% less. I got mine in May, I casually asked without expecting anything and they just gave me the discount right away. Paid <$100 for it. Amazing what you can get if you just open your mouth and ask.

bros, Nikko shop ALWAYS gives the 20% off. its a marketing thing there... but still, <$100 is ok, its about the same price as if you order from US. The benefit of course is if you order via delivery from US you can get it in RHD, but wait about 2-3 weeks.

dont know why on earth Nikko brings in LHD to Singapore instead of RHD.
