There is a POLL already on the board (use the search function). The majority are chosing Titanium, Red or Silver. Last time I looked at the poll only 2 people out of 60 had said that they had ordered a yellow RX-8. I think most people didn't pick yellow because we have seen so many pictures of the yellow prototye for the last 2 years. Plus you can't order the yellow/black interior.

Color Choice

I chose green. I'm hoping it's a dark shade. Tit or silver was a second option but their are way too many silver cars on the road.

EXACTLY! Yellow with black/yellow interior would have been really interesting (even if it got dirty easily). Once that wasn't available I'm sure many (inlcuding me) looked at alternatives.

After seeing the car in person, and the color choices, I decided against the Titanium and I'm going for Nordic Green- it's kind of a blue-green metallic, but so dark it's almost black. The black was beautiful, but I'm afraid it would show every little bit of dirt it picked up.

I really had a hard time deciding between the yellow and the blue. Finally opted for the blue, but my dealer had a couple of allocation unaccounted for, so he ordered an extra sport package in yellow so I can have my choice when they come in. :D

I’m definitely going with the yellow and black leather interior!

I always wanted to get the yellow but some of the pictures with the red car looked just awesome. I finally made it down to the Detroit car show so that I could see the red in person and I am glad I did because the red has too much burgundy in it for my liking.

where can I see color photos

I do not like black, red or blue.

I prefer silver or titanium. I like the car in light color and very shiny.

Which are all the choices ?

I would like to see photographs of the alternative colors ?

Thanks.
