Why does it only have the MS front bumper and not the rest of the kit? Strange....

And please get rid of the Mustang style retro lettering on the side.

Be cool alfy - I saw your disclaimer about it being old news and when you're saying, "has anyone heard new info about this?" it's reasonable and expected that you are posting something *old*. If you had something new you wouldn't be asking for something new.

Of course, you might have posted such a question on an existing thread that referenced that car, but that's just style.

Never mind Ike. He's just crusty because he doesn't *own* an RX-8. He gets constipated from always envying ours.

jeez this is old..
this was an austrailian concept car. they showed it way back in 2004. If they were going to market it, they probably would've done so already.

Yup, one off concept just like the white one we've (maybe) all seen.

So bump one of the many threads that already exist on the topic you keep starting. Oh, and wake up and smell 2006 noobie.

You rule Jedi54. Somehow I hadn't seen that one before - thanks for the pics and link. I used to think the white cars were only for girls and old people (think VW rabbit convertible and caddys), but the white RX-8s with white rims have changed my mind. This is absolutely the hottest one yet. Hmmmm, might need to upgrade to a white RX-8 sooner rather than later and see about kitting it out as close to this as I can. Of course, without a supercharger it's really not the same.......

Anyone have the e-mail for Ike's wife? He's not taking his meds.

Ike, if you don't have anything nice to say maybe you should go post on the Evo forum.

Ike's been on the war path lately. Rumor is his Evo lost to an RX-8 in a race.

Yeah, I think I was one of the few people who actually thought hose fog lights looked pretty cool. Wonder what ever became of this white beauty. And you're right Cool Blue...it would be a shame to have this without the Supercharge.
