We don't have your FL-smooth roads here in the Northeast. 'sides, he just got it and the R3 comes with a great suspension.

Looks great, Enjoy.

Thanks for everyone for checking out the pics and the comments

As for what Mazda Eight says, the pics aren't that difficult to do, you just need a good tripod and a good series of stepped up and down pics.

Which takes me to what ZumnRx8, the HDR is a photography style meant to bring up all the details you would get with a set of more than 4 flashed iluminating every aspect of the picture. When you do this there are no lost details in the shadows. It is a technique used for motion pictures and comercial photography, it looks very dramatic.

Technicaly you take 3 to 5 pictures without moving the camera (hence the need of a good tripod) with different exposures one of them should be @0 the others -2, -1, +1 and +2, you out it into an HDR program and voila! It sounds a lot more difficult than what it realy is!

So that is why the 0 picture does not look that good because I did not use any flashes, but I'll post it in a few minutes iwc3707.

It is an RX8 with a better suspension, realy tight with Blistein shocks, 19 in wheels, and a different interior, the main difference being Recaro bucket seats.
