It may interest a few of yo to notice a subtle difference on the front of the RX-8 on page 37 as opposed to most of the other pictures (I will use the image 5 pages after the preface. You will not a little bulge underneath the headlights, these are squirters and I'm 80% sure that we're getting them, but knowing mazda Aus. they'll probably take them away to bring down the weight of the car!

 

It's a legal requirement to have them in the UK if the car has Xenon headlights (don't know why). So we get them as standard.

 

Oh yeah. It IS different !

To be honest I prefer the smoother lines without the squirters, but if that's the way they're arriving in Australia (after all we ARE getting a model that is based on the European spec) then so be it.

P.D.U

 

YUP!

Squirters are here...

Saw them on the pre-production car last week. Some Mazda IT dude I was with had great delight in manually prying them out with his fingernails to show me, only to let them go "pop" back into place.
