Macau holiday and RX-8 sightings

Have not been in Macau for a year and a half, and there are so many RX-8s... as much as the casino build around here

I saw one white with autoexe wing going to the pier, and a yellow one when I walk back from the Macau GP on Friday I think.



Also there is a Mazda dealer there. They told me they only get the non-JDM model. They have xenon with headlight washer (non JDM), heated heat (so not JDM) and old style leather seats (the 2003 type). Listed 250hp though (we know it is a lie).



I usually come in Jan/Feb and it is bloody cold then.

November is like summer.

Oh before I forget... some pics of mine at the GP and some from other sources (inc official sites) http://s97.photobucket.com/albums/l2...07/Macau%20GP/

headlight washers and heated seats are really useless extras to pay for here in sg.

Japan model has slightly different spec. Export model will have 238hp only for 6 port engine *6MT.

Yes it is probably a gram lights.

When is the F1? I will see if there is any Pathology conference around the same time and I will come over.

I missed a chance to meet the owner of that White RX-8 last night, but had a drink with gimana... seriously Macau is nice.

Venetian is nice... a boat in the middle of the shopping mall with the guy singing opera.
