Need help with RX8 Color code

Hi all,

Just booked my ride yesterday.
My PI is actually wanting to know if i can provide the color code for the True Red version which i requested.
Anyone knows where to find it or what it is?
According to him, Galaxy Grey is "32S" and Velocity Red is 27D, is that right?

I can find it out for u (too lazy to go downstairs and open the bonnet, its 2.20am now) , but I think u better wait for your car. cos someone did tell me it may be red for same model of cars, but may be of a slightly different tones.

So if I give u the code for my car , it may be different from yours when it arrive.

If yours is the Velo Red, the code may be different from the True Red which i have placed. The PI of mine neber ordered T. Red before so ask me for the code while the order is enroute.

If worse comes to worst, i will get the normal V.Red.

Do let me know your code whenever u are free. Thanks again

Wah, i think end up i can't get True Red
Cos the difference in price between the normal RX-8 and the True Red one is about 500,000yen difference. Totally up more than $5k after all the misc stuff added to it. Sigh...

I think, should save the money cos $5K u can get alot of other things to beautify your car.

But I also believe that a True Red color car will definitely stand out .. and furthur more its Japan factory spray paint , the workmanship should be better than having the cars respray in Singapore

True, $5k can be used to add-on the "missing" fog-light which doesn't come default with my order.

Do any of your 8s come with original fog-lights? or is it on special indent?
Think it normally applies to those from PI instead of MM.

They quote me $600 to add the lights. Is it a good deal or is there better ones?
