walaooooo...bue pai see meeeee

 

"nao hia"
say exhaust i dont care but diss a WHITE then they are trying to take it to the next level hor

 

lac la bro
we dun nid to go down to their level right...
but seriously... you can lun ar? they talk about pearl white liddat...
esp. when the colour gt nothin to do wif the exhaust

 

Hey sgren,

I came to the defence the pearl white on that thread.

As for the triple exhaust I am surprised by the outpouring of scorn when it is just another mod amonsgt many on the market. Even though it's not functional I don't think it is that ugly. The guys on the Tiburon site may be jealous and wannabee but the RX8 forumers should have closed ranks with us instead of siding with them.

I love white. Wat's wrong with that colour???
I reserve comment on the 3 tip but to each his own. there are worse looking mod out there on all type of cars leh......

 

Woah...Hyundai tiburon (tuscani) owners having a laugh over an RX-8??...now THAT is funny :D :p

 

Hahahh those Tuscani can laugh only what...what else can they do

 

tuscani????? rx8??? u see the big difference there??

 

Hehe...I think they smell too much of our exhaust until they sick in the head

 

Haha.....that's a good one :D

 

Talk about different taste....

I just saw a titanium grey RX-8 with a sharkfin on the roof... Really wonder wat tat fellow is thinking of.... Sigh!

 

wats wrong with a sharkfin on the roof???

 

See wat I mean... difference taste....

 

If i m not wrong, the featured ride belong to someone livin in Sengkang area, and it was last seen over a kerb @a junction near compasspoint, driver was seen out of the ride uninjured, thankfully.

 

i cun see wat u mean...... wats wrong???

all latest BMWs have the sharkfin as standard, y dun u say they look ugly? juz becos they are bmws? with sharkfin means poor taste? show us ur car and tell us wats good then??

sharkfin kills the look? look like kuku? can be more explicit? wat u dun like, doesnt mean its not nice wat....

so u r the tough talking guy from mycar forum........

 

So that was the car that people were discussing in MCS, cause someone saw that accident.

 

Wats all the problem with sharkfin on the roof? Had mine installed recently, keeps the surfers away...have to feed it once in a while tho :p :D

 

hahahahaha..... dats a good one!! literally a shark on the roof!!

 

haha....coupe bro...with da mod....I get better antenna reception, bmw loses out against our 8, finally :D

 

Mi oso interested in sharks. Where to get 2 of these??

 

It is really not a matter of good taste if it is on a BMW.... If u ask me, the bloody sharkfin looks damn ugly on the current BMWs too....

The sharkfin is not a cosmetic accessory... It came in some conti cars because that is an antenna for their market. Due to mass production, that antenna is till there although not used in the Singapore market.

Even if u request the distributor to remove it, they will not as it is too much work (ie. remove, patch holes, paint n polish again). That sharkfin is there becos the BMW *n other conti cars) owners had no choice....

Having the sharkfin on a RX-8 is really breaking it's form/shape... some consider this under "rice".... but well, to each their own.... if u r happy with it, so be it. Like I said... different taste....



P.S. Simi tough talking guy from MCF?

 

U should have colour coded the fin - grey clashes with blue!

 

SGREN and RINGO,

I personally love the white, especially the snow flake pearl effect. If MM sells white, I would have gotten it. I guess my point is really to each their own. At the end of the day, we love our 8 and we should sing the same tune in our forum! Not cool to critise our cars in their forum, but then again.. they have their speaking rights.. Sharkfin or not, its your choice. U spend your own money which makes u happy, and end of the day, I still say.. excellent choice on the car!

juz yest, a 2.7l black TWO-KAR-NI chiet me....... i was in a hurry to attend a wedding dinner, so i start off the red line slightly at a higher rev.... then suddenly heard his "floor-the-pedal-sound" when his engine suddenly becomes very very loud... dats when i dropped back to second gear and whack......

can see he floored his auto damn hard as his engine sounds like it is breaking apart.... i rev until 3rd gear, when i have to turn left oredi.....

but it was a good challenge.... and he was slightly in front of me when i have to slow down and keep left...... i hope his engine dun go bust after that..... cos he whacked that engine real hard (i mean real hard!!!!!) while i easily rev to 9k rpm for every gear shift (consolation remark ).....

but then again, he was in front of me before i braked, so in child-like term - "he won the straight line sprint" (less than 150m)......

my car is quite stock in terms of performance mods so nvr belittle a 2.7l tuscani...... 2.7l niah hor.....

 

I had got use to it ..... once you drive faster .... easy to be engaged.

I was "chiat" by a light blue Alfa GTA (hatchback) on AYE earlier this month too on AYE with moderate traffic. Loss out in terms of pick up ...... (consolation : I'm on 19").... and that's a good car with a skillful & fierce driver behind the wheel (thumbs up)
