New blue color RX-8

limited only 300 cars and only in Japan.

This deep blue color seems really nice to me.

Looks like the same colour as the X2 car. Very nice. Could you translate what it says under "special parts"? I guess it's only listing the Mazdaspeed spoilers, skirts etc. that are fitted...

Yes. you are right. That's just listing what you mentioned.

As I checked now, the same color (strat blue mica: <- I am not sure the spelling is correct) exists for Demio(Mazda2) and RoadStar(Miata).

Thanks for the news Yuhki. Good news for you in Japan and not so good news for us in the 'States. This feels like those Geico commercials, LOL!

Strato Blue Mica is the same color that was used on the '03 Miata SE here in the states. It is now a standard color for 2004 Miata's. Looks sweet on the 8..:D

Ah, shucks. I was hoping it was a deep blue clearcoat. Metallic and Mica have their place but I really do prefer a beautiful color all by itself without sparkles.

If that color was available in 2004 in the U.S. , that would be worth waiting for. And with MazdaSpeed goodies, it would be irresistable.

Are you listening Mazda?? Us non mutants like dark blue also! Put the steering wheel on the other side and send it here.
