Who's RX8 was this?

This is the most rediculous RX8 I've ever seen--pretty whack.

Ok I just 'Asked the seller a question', here is a copy of it, I wonder what they will reply:

"Can you remove those G-D aweful decals from all over the car? Including the chrome RX-8 emblem stuck to the passenger's side front airbag location?

The RX-8 is a beautiful car on its own...someone was seriously on crack when they did this."

well I got a response...it seems the dealership isn't that wacked...but still they should remove those decals promptly:

"
You asked:
"Can you remove those G-D aweful decals from all over the car? Including the chrome RX-8 emblem stuck to the passenger's side front airbag location? The RX-8 is a beautiful car on its own...someone was seriously on crack when they did this."


hello, thanks for your concern for the stickers. If you win the auction, or buy the car I can have the stickers removed. regards, ***name edited***

The whole cz deal seems to go to be true to me. When I sent them email asking for a dyno they said "sorry none available." Now to me if your claiming 20+ hp you should have a dyno sheet on hand for this type of request. Now i could be way off base and if so i apologize.

^^^wrong thread I think...but let me know if I am off base as well.

in regards to the exterior of the car, stickers aren't hard to peel off. If there is residue, you can wash and wax the card to get rid of it.

If you want to lay blame for something like this look at movies like "Fast and Retarded", NOPI,and so called sport of drifting. Those ground effect body kits and big wings really help when sliding around, and before you start NASCAR is not on my list of favorite things.

Well, let's see... if the angular momentum combined with the coefficient of drag to impart sufficient audibility into the spin cycle, I'm sure the resulting centrifugal derivation would have a noticeable affect on the angle of the dangle... hypothetically, of course.

Or, in layman's terms, they only make it look spiffy.

Hey now, I enjoy drifting as much as the next college-aged guy, but anyone who decals their car up like this is in need of either a stern talking to or a sound beating. Why go out of your way to make yourself look like an idiot and your car look tacky?
Don't even get me started on the grapefruit shooter e-bay exhausts (especially the sideways ones that sound like wet farts) or the spaceship kits that everyone with a "fast" econobox sees as a necessity...
