Up until Saturday, I hadn't seen an RX-8 since the NY Auto Expo 2 years ago when the concept was first there.



I didn't really like the look at first, but I think it's growing on me. I can't wait until I start seeing more of them. I was down in Des Moines with my car-loving lady friend, so I decided to take her to the Mazda dealer to see if they had one on the lot. To my surprise, they had 11!! I love the interior...and want some of the seats. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png As for the exterior, I really don't like the red or the yellow, but the dark gray certainly is nice. Oh, and I'll take a set of the wheels too.





The dealer also had a dark blue MS Protege and a black STi. We saw another STi (she hadn't previously seen one, although I had) later that day. I guess it was a really good car sighting day.



So, am I the last person to see one on the street?

yes...

Actually, the dealership had the Blue Pearl STi. The black STi we saw later in the afternoon...



Tsk, tsk. How am I to trust you when I catch you red-handed, spreading our experiences around the 'net? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png



As for the question - yes, I do believe you are the last to witness the beauty of an RX-8 on the road.

well i still havent seen one so i guess hes just second to last.

Dammit, I was thinking the STi at the dealership was blue, but I wasn't sure. Oh well...I can blame it on being tired. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

i saw a red rx8 today on my way to work with the rotor accent package and the body kit.

it was beautiful

the black is my favorite. silver in close second.

Yeah, I like the black too...just not the red or yellow.
