either way, if it's white or not, i think mazda should offer white as an option.
IGOZMZM 03-24-2003, 05:00 PM They do offer white, just not in the US. I think it's only offered in Japan.
aznsap 03-24-2003, 05:00 PM noooOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
cueball 03-24-2003, 06:42 PM That has been many peoples reactions.
lefuton 03-24-2003, 06:47 PM personally i'd take the rx8 in any other color other than white...not that it looks bad, just i've never had a car that wasn't white...since i got my license =|
blustori 03-24-2003, 09:11 PM a white rx8 with red interior is wat im looking at... it would be killer
Smoker 03-26-2003, 04:43 PM What a sweet looking colour .......... reminds me of the classic white FC.
aznsap 03-27-2003, 01:18 AM what's the possibility that we'll see white as an option for the rx-8 in the near future?
RotaryXTypeSH 03-27-2003, 03:23 AM i think the white Rx8 looks nice...hope we can have that color too...
exzeltus 03-28-2003, 03:22 PM White looks so clean! I LIKE. I would never buy it though, but I would like the option.
Call me stoopid, but I've always had black cars (all 2 of them). I think they look much more menacing.
rotarynews.com 03-28-2003, 03:34 PM That is the only White RX-8 I saw, and it looked damn good. However, on film/photos, the lines don't show up that well. I heard that Marketing killed the option for the first year, since they wanted all the RX-8's to be photographable.
But in person, damn it was nice. That would have been the color I got, if it were available. In fact, if a good body kit is available, the whole car will get shot in white.
Spike 03-30-2003, 02:34 AM It will be available in white in Australia. It is actually a metallic pearlite colour.
obi-wahn 03-30-2003, 09:49 AM JFI: saw white as an option on the spanish rx8 page ...
bye

moogle 03-30-2003, 02:20 PM only a white rx-8. I am already wowed with the rx-8, why should I care that its white. Any color I am still wowed, maybe not purple.
aznsap 03-30-2003, 10:28 PM fantastic dude......
TotaledMX-3 03-31-2003, 01:27 PM I really was looking forward to purchasing a white one, white cars with can be quite beautiful if they have the proper lines as the RX-8 does.
HalleysComet 04-01-2003, 10:22 PM I was very disappointed that white was not an option for the RX-8 here in the US. I am going to get mine white, one way or the other. I love it in white!
simonr 04-03-2003, 03:46 PM Historically white is the 'right' colour for a Japanese car just as Italians are red, Germans Silver, French Blue and British cars BRG. White is a very popular colour for cars in Japan.
RX-EVolved 04-03-2003, 04:54 PM CHOOSE ONE OF 8 COLORS FOR YER 8 (http://www.rx-8.mazda.co.jp/gallery/3dcg/exterior/)
THIS IS JUST FOR FUN! OBVIOUSLY NOT ALL THESE COLORS WILL BE AVAILABLE IN THS GOOD OL' USA.

simonr 04-03-2003, 05:11 PM The pic at the start of this thread must have been taken at the press event where all the reviewers got pissed off at having to follow a slow Mazda 6 around the circuit.

That sounds true! White is a very popular color for japanese cars but i haven't seen a high %age of white jap's in US. Personally I've had enough whites so I am going anything but white :-)
There are many Titanium Grey fans but seems like there aren't many people excited about the SILVER ???
- Do you think the silver will look too light
- will look dull
- too comon ?
tookwik 04-13-2003, 08:58 PM Those of you who want white I would recommend waiting a year. At the introduction of every new rx-# model I can remember that mazda has produced they have not offered white until the second year. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I can sure back this up about the 3rd gen. rx7.
aznsap 04-14-2003, 11:28 PM ya, i have a white 4th gen nissan maxima. i wouldn't pick any other color.

-no, titanium is too dark for oregon winters
- no it's one of the metallic colors
-LOL no color will look too common on this car!

Hi zoom44,
my question was actually about the Silver, not the Grey. Any comments about the Silver?
