Cool In Thailand...

Hi all,
I'm new here on the rx-8 forum. I'm Brazilian and live in Bangkok, Thailand. I wish I could find a place to buy Rx-8 without taxes here, because the taxes here on imported is just so damn high. Anyways, a nice country located in south-east Asia with good weather, good food, and nice beaches too. Bangkok, the capital city, is a cool city for racing as there are no speed limits. You can just race down at 3 AM on the highway here, reaching some 230 km/h. That is definately fun.

So anyone here owns a Rx-8 in Thailand?


:D

Was in Bangkok during 7th to 10th August and saw a fully kitted Pearl White RX8 waiting to make a right turn from MBK Ctr to Siam Discovery Ctr. Wanted to say Hi to the driver but changed my mind cos I didnt want to frightened him. Observed the car from above the overhead bridge and u know what, the traffic was so heavy that day and i thnk he was stuck for at least 15 mins just to make that turn. Bet he could see the fuel gauge going down!

Yea, the traffic problem here in Bangkok is still unsolved. The other day I saw a black rx-8 with blue lights under the chassis and dark windows. It looked so beautiful.
