Guys (and possible Girls),

Does anyone have here a compilation of the various colours on offer in the RX-8?

I've like to sit them side-by-side as the time is getting close in Aus to select the colour of choice.

Colours - on-car - in-real-lighting would be a bonus.

Thanks
Ric

Here are your north american color choices with the exception of performance white, a color most likely not available until next year. An "m" next to the color means the color is metallic, and "mc" means the color is a special mica color. Below the color choices are the color choices of leather. Black, red, and tan color inserts are options. The black cloth is not pictured. I have seen the tan in person at the detroit show and it looks a lot better in person than in pictures. It is slightly lighter than the color pictured but not by much.

edit: If you can not see the pictures, right click on the red x's and click properties. Then copy the url of the picture and paste it into your explorer bar and go to the website. Then go back and the pictures should appear

How about the Nordic Green? Does anyone have a pic of that? The samples on the Mazda site suck.
