I got finally received my car last Thursday, and spent all day Saturday Zainoing it. Here's a link (http://homepage.mac.com/ectomort/PhotoAlbum5.html) to some pictures. BTW, this is the car that will be on the front of Sega's upcoming GT Online, as mentioned here. (http://www.rx8forum.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=6176&postid=105428) (My wife works in the Marketing department at Sega. ;) )

yea, it seemed from some online videos of GT online that they put a lot into the rx-8 on that game. They showed it a good deal on the videos as well. Might even make the box art

awesome--and you already got strakes NICE

Dude... what I'm saying is it did make the box art. I even managed to convince marketing at Sega to make it blue like mine in the US (the Japanese version has a red RX-8.)

Here's the first draft of the "pack front." The final version lacks the "nuclear thingy" because my wife (hi Arianne!) thought it was a nonsensical distraction.

Thanks! I think the car looks great w/o the appearance package with strakes and spoiler.

I bought the strakes and exhaust finishers from Trussville and had them well before the car arrived. The strakes went on as soon as I got home. :D The finishers will have to wait until I get a little more nerve (I couldn't release all of the locking tongues, and read about someone breaking one while forcing it.)

Beautiful car! Congrats!

After seeing your pics, I now know that I need to get the wing spoiler and strakes!

Based upon how yours turn out, I just may get the exhaust finishers as well....

Congrats again!

super sweet man....on a similar note I wanna talk to your wife about some Sega stuff! I'm a huge gamer and would love to chat her up about Sega and some great stuff they've done in the past. Feel free to email me offlist or PM me.

Thanks

p.s. On my wedding cake was Sonic and Amy

OmegaBob, thanks for the compliments. I'll post more pictures in this thread when I get the exhaust finishers and clear "winkers" installed.

Tell your wife to tell Sega to get a Power Stone 3 out for all consoles (or just ps2, which i have and dotn like all that much for some reason, great console, but something about it...) ASAP!!!


and killer car, after seeing the blue in zaino i need some of that, i thought my blue looked killer with just some turtle wax type stuff, but man, that zaino is something else...

beautiful car!
