View Full Version : Change of colour
RIX 8 05-08-2007, 07:11 AM Hi all,
I'm thinking of getting another RX8.... Basically I really have enjoyed driving this car (and car club etc :lol:) and there's nothing else in this price bracket that suits.
But I can't help wondering if a new model or model upgrade (eg more power) will be coming out soon - afterall it has been nearly 4 years since first released & and then I'm also wondering about the colour - I'm just not sure whether I should go for red again or maybe white or...?
I'm leaning towards white (this colour wasn't available when i got mine) this time with a full bodykit, hymee exhaust of course, etc etc
Well just thought i'd ask for your opinion on colour & whether anyone has heard if a model upgrade/new model is rumoured to be coming out soon?

DrewMan 05-08-2007, 06:50 PM I don't think theres going to be another model till about 2010?
I suggest holding off till then?
I think the US side of the forum has a lot of rumours about that going around
takahashi 05-08-2007, 06:52 PM Go White!
AJ's Shinka 05-08-2007, 07:13 PM Copper Red Ftw!

Black-8 05-08-2007, 10:04 PM But if you do get a new RX-8 now, you'll only get 170kw (manual). That's 7kw lower than yours (and most of ours)... but then again... what can you do with 7kw?
jormatom 05-08-2007, 10:32 PM White.
We will need one to try and get a full set in the club.
auzoom 05-09-2007, 12:20 AM For the money involved, I would keep what you have and spend the money on mods :)

Get another red, Rik, to compensate for the power loss (u say yourself that it's faster), and u won't have to change your user name either hehe

Eeekk - why do you think they dropped the power? or has that question been asked B4 and answered... and i've missed it?
Hmmm, i hadn't thought about the name change :rolleyes: :)

I would join...but I'm all the way up in Sydney.
As to the question, personally I'd hold out a few more years and see what the next gen one looks like. I'm sure your red baby is still serving you very well.
MissyK 05-13-2007, 08:17 PM Rik, name change is easy, you just have to pm 1 of the supermods on here and they'll switch it for you ;)

Beuddy - i can always rely on you Kali.
BTW it was a bit of a shame you weren't at Broadford today :uhh:
MissyK 05-14-2007, 03:48 AM i know... last minute committments, bloody work..
i'll get that sticker to you tho Rik.. i havent forgotten
takahashi 05-14-2007, 05:41 AM Rik told me he is set on the white! White with MS kit!
WhiteRain 05-14-2007, 06:25 AM Looks like Taka is itching for a new car too hey? heh heh.
takahashi 05-14-2007, 06:45 AM New cars comes in a lot of forms. Some good mods take the worn parts out and put a good newly performed one in - it is a new car.
Although I love white
Revolver 05-19-2007, 12:04 AM I'm also sorely tempted by the white. Looks hawt when modded.
Mind you, the copper red is a beautiful colour...
MissyK 05-19-2007, 08:12 AM I want a Pink one
DrewMan 05-19-2007, 01:43 PM speaking of white...

Black-8 05-20-2007, 01:22 AM is the driving/fog light behind the grill?
enforcer 05-20-2007, 02:00 AM After seeing the pics by Drew... my vote would also be white....
Cromax 05-20-2007, 02:57 AM Just don't go poo brown ...
Revolver 05-20-2007, 07:05 PM Interesting white posted by Drew.
I'm doubtful about the thick black pinstripe running down the side of the car but the rest looks great.
WhiteRain 05-21-2007, 05:45 AM Don't like the rims.
But I do like white :) *shock. horror.*
