here are a few pictures of my rx-8 going from velocity red to verde itaca pearl
the verde itaca pearl is originally used by the lamborghini murcielago
most rx-8 owners in my hometown have got the velocity red as a colour , so i decided to introduce a change
so far I'm very satisfied with the transformation

Interesting... at least definitely different. Not sure I'd do that color, but it looks pretty cool.
Now, as it was said, you'll have to change the interior too, because the current one absolutely doesn't work with the new color.
Did they paint the the engine bay too? Otherwise it'd look rather weird to see the original red and the green next to each other.

Hmmm...really hard to say because your pics show all different shades of green. Props for doing something different, but not a fan of the color. As mentioned, the interior is way off now. Also noticed the piston hanging from your keychain.

wow, that's different!
I think the color works very well on exotics such as Lambos, not sure how I feel about it on an RX-8.
The interior will need some help though, the red looks very out of place.
congrats on doing something different. As long as you like it...

thanks for the comments
regarding the interior , it looks a lot better live than in pictures
I have seen a lamborghini murcielago with the same colour and green black iteriour , but to me it seemed too ordinary
I've wanted to paint a car verde itaca pearl for quite some time , it being my favourite colour , and the rx-8 seemed like a good choice to try it out
the paint job costed around 2 and half grand , converted to us dollars
