Nice. Very nice.

I rarely see white, and when I do, I always am reminded of how good they look.

Make sure clear corners are one of your first mods.

I wasn't a fan of the black/red until i saw this one. I think it looks great with whitewater pearl. Enjoy, welcome to the club.

it's not slow and most don't think that, but it is slow compared to a evo/sti/vette...

congrats to you. I'm looking into getting my 8 soon too. I was only considering either the VR or WB but after seeing your WP w/ Red Black leather i thinking there might be a third color choice for me.

Congradulations, you got exactly the same RX8 i'm looking for right now! With the exception of red/black leather. I'm trying to get one with grey/black leather. I'm actually going to look at one next week.

Congrats. I actually just bought a used white 2005 a few weeks ago as well (3,500 miles.) Mine is a 6-speed sport without appearance package. I paid $20,800 for it. Thought it was a great deal. Good luck,

Joe

Congrats! I've had my white 05 for about a week now. They haven't invented words for how much I enjoy this car. I don't think I've enjoyed a car this much since my first one, over 15 years ago!
