I just saw one picture of the Sunlight Silver RX-8 from the Houston show, but I would like to see more because there haven't been very many pics of the SS yet, so does anyone have any more pics?

Is the titanium color of the special edition Miata at the show
exactly the same color as used on the RX-8?

Thanks for posting my pics DrKillJoy. It looks really great in person. Remember that the color will look different in sunlight than with the indoor lighting of the autoshow (even better, I bet). The car is really nice. Seems like the more I looked at it, the more I liked it.

all pics were taken in Houston :D

the car pictured is Sunlight Silver, not Titanium.. there was a tit. Miata about 35 feets away.. the difference is drastic.

The silver is a real silver.. on the same note as the FD silver.... the Titanium is almost a charcol or grey color many have said.

Great pics of my car Doc! I was having doubts about my color choice. I am sure I made the right choice now, as long as it looks this good in person. Does it?

Thanks !

...again, here is a comparision of the two colors; Tit and SS.

well my honest opinion.. i am "color blind" so I see the colors but maybe a bit different than some of you guys...

so me it is pretty simple.. TIT = Grey and SSM = Silver ... Make mine TIT, there are TOOOO many Silver cars out there now a-days.. "

I like the sunlight silver a lot, and the red interior is ok, but it doesnt really go well with the silver exterior.
