Thanks for the welcome....Actually, I have yet to decide on a colour....Just reporting a sighting of a blue one ....Sorry L+L , won't be a yellow one!!!
I have narrowed the choice down to Red, Titanium or Blue...

They are my favourite colours. I get lots of comments from people when they get a little closer to my car out in the sun, on how vivid the metalic is in the red. Almost like a ski-boat.

And I have seen the Hymee Catback on Titanium and Red :D

Cheers,
Hymee.

My bad!

Got excited, cause after 2 weeks, I'm still suffering from second thoughts on my choice of blue....thought maybe I could some how get re-assurance that other people are buying the colour as well.

Still haven't seen another blue in Sydney yet.

Greetings All,

Saw a Winning Blue RX-8 at Kensington, Sydney at lunchtime today - it had every extra imaginable on it by the look of it - spoilers, skirts, chrome fuel cap etc etc. Looked fantastic as all Winning Blue examples do - especially ours :-) - we *never* get tired of looking at it or driving it (even though it is the -gasp- auto !!) - and lots of people on the road that have a good look must also agree !

So to anyone who is ordering a Winning Blue 8 - congratulations - great choice. Unfortunately for us though, Mazda has just released the '3' range which is now available in Winning Blue - there goes our exclusivity - we've now caught up with the rest of the colours - except for the Yellow - as the rest are available on other models already as far as I know.

We'll be one of the few RX-8s in Tasmania in March as we take a 2 week tour around the place - might even see another Winning Blue down ther maybe - anyone know of any in Tassie ?

Regards
Jeffneil

I bet you see plenty of 350z etc around your area Nojooc.

I have driven past a few times but never spotted an 8 in that area.

Mostly "FULLY SICK" Wrx's around my area and the occasional S6 RX7 in hot pink or something equally tasteful. :P

Have seen more 350z's lately, but could be the same car with a "change" of paintwork and plates (wink, wink).

You can play with yourself or one other as much as you like. Just don't think about me while your doing it.

And don't do it while posting. Remember, we don't, by definition, like reciprocating action :p

And no come-backs like "Don't flatter yourself, Hymee", cause I beat ya to it!

Cheers,
Hymee.

Hymee,

But isn't this site powered by "Wankel" power?
