Talking my rx8, GT mustang REgency, and G35

It was a nice day the other day and i got a little bored so i cleaned the cars and then took some pics. The rx8 is mine its a 2004 VR with Autobahn front and Kenstyle rear, with my winter rims on. The mustang is a 2007 GT mustang regency, its a custom mustang that can only be found at certain dealerships, and this car is QUICK!! then you got the stock G35 with the upgraded wheels. Let me know what you guys think.

I've seen those wheels on the G35 on a few.. I think it is a dealership upgrade.. Been pondering about a set for myself, but I think for the price the dealership would charge, I'll just get some aftermarket ones..

Nice pictures.. What are your summer wheels?

I'd sell the G35 and Mustang, keep the 8, and buy an '06 Z06.

Very nice rides tho.

yea the wheels on the G35 were just the dealership upgrade and they were pretty expensive so yea i would just say go aftermarket. Last summer i just had the stock 18" OEM wheels, but i wanna get some volk GT-V's.

the mustang is actually quicker than my buddies 98 vette, so its pretty quick as is, short throw is on the way, and who knows what else.

nioce!!!!... love the kenstyle rear.. but I'm bias obviously hehe..

The 'stang paintjob looks sick.. is the two tone top a cream color or white? Curious as the pictures are a bit bright on my side so I can't tell clearly. The G35 is alright I just see to many of them in my area to be well wow'ed anymore.

Well a C5 coupe or vert is quite different from a C6 Z06. You are talking supercar performance from the Z. Like I said before though, nice cars. I'm sure the Stang and the G both make better daily drivers than the Z06.

thanks for all the comments, my favorite one to drive all around is still prolly the 8, i just love that car, as for speed by far the stang.

- and yea realize some people arent gonna like the stang, cant expect everyone to like the car.

- and i know there is a huge difference between the C6 Zo6 and a 98 vette, just thought i would mention it. i have always loved the ZO6. hopully one will be soon to come, but i dunno.

cant trade them in the stang is partly my dad partly mine, we both kinda looked at it as an investment since there are only a selected number made. so its more of a only in amazing weather car, the G35 is his daily driver, so while i wish i could trade it in a turbo the 8, i will just have to wait a little longer, but i have some things planned.

Well judging from the bucks you got to spend on cars, its definately within the realm of possibility.

The 19's on the G35 are from rays, they are pretty light as is. You probably wont gain much if any weight savings from going with an aftermarket set. They are forged as well. We actually get those as stock here in Canada on all of the G coupes.

The stang is not my cup of tea, but i can appreciate it for what it is.

The 8 is real nice, my fav combo of all time for our cars. However are those wheels temporary or are they what you use? I think with a nice set of 19's and a slight drop, the RX8 would be gorgeous.

Are those 18s on your 8?? They look kinda small.

And I hate to say it, but the stang looks nice.

as for the statements about the wheels, those are only my winter wheels to much snow around here in the midwest for me to be cruisin around with some nice expenisive wheels on the 8. also they are only 17" so the car will look a lot better when i get som 19"s on it this summer as it is already dropped on Tein S tech's. and as Kris said the wheels on the G35 are Rays, and yes they are super light, i took them off a couple of times last year and put them on my 8 just messin around and i loved them thats why im leaning towards actually getting a set for my 8.

and as promised i will post the remaining pics of my kenstyle rear tom. It is IMO the sexiest rear for the 8, right up there with the fabolous

thanks for the comments,
brett
