Anyone here have a red with black int, it seems everyone with red has black/red int
 

I've been noticing that it seems every red exterior RX8 on this board has the red & black interior. While this combo looks very hot, there is something pretty hot about the bright red outside with a black inside . . .

Does anyone have this combo with some pics ?

Also what is making everyone go for the red & black interior with the red exterior . . . I would think it would be a 50 -50 split between the 2 interiors ...


BTW I saw the red up close today under the bright sun and that color is stunning . .. it has a beautiful sparkle to it that I never realized it had from a distance . . . it really gives the red a deep look to it.

Hey don't forget red with black/chaparral interior. I think the red looks amazing... but still I didn't really want to look at red constantly inside a car, some weird thing like that. The chaparral is great, I find it soothing, comfortable, well, a little less in your face.

Another way of looking at it is I have an idea of what looks really good - red w/red/black, but then I have an idea of how I can live with the car's colors.

Do you have any pictures of your car . . . I never saw that combo ?

Sounds very nice !!!

I have red with BLACK interior...I am not a fan of the red or chapparal colors on the seat.

That color combo looks really sporty . . . I see your from Long Island as well . . . which dealer did you get it from ?


Also are you happy you went with the solid black int ?

It really does look both sporty and classy.

I am from Deer Park. I purchased mine from Country Mazda in Huntington - they were really nice there. If you don't have the car yet and are thinking of it, go there and ask for Bruce Martin. He helped a couple of people on these forums.

You live pretty close to me . . . I'm from Melville !!
I am buying from Country Mazda also and hopefully should be picking my car up this Friday if the snow isn't too bad

They seem like a great dealer !!

Did you put snow tires on your car ? I'm trying to find some but tirerack is out of stock on the 225/45/18 . . .

Country has a great staff that is a pleasure to deal with...I deal with them quite often on swapping cars. Bruce is a great guy as well as Jean Luc. Anyone here will love to deal with them.

Jean Luc is cool too - he has such a passion for rotaries.

I put snow tires on my car right after that first snow storm we had in early December. My wife got the car stuck at Target with a dusting of snow on flat ground....it was horrible. I wound up immediately going to Tire Rack and buying a set of Dunlop M3s, and now it tears through snow like a truck. Please believe me when I tell you to NOT EVEN THINK of driving in the snow with the stock tires....you will die.

Anyway, glad to hear there are so many Long Islanders here!

What wheels did you buy ? I have snow wheels on my BMW which I am trading in and the one thing that is really bothering me is tirerack doesn't have any 225/45/18 snow tires in stock.

I know what it's like to drive in snow with summer tires . . . it stinks ...

I put them on my stock 18" rims...switched them over at the local WTC tire place on Deer Park Avenue. I know some people do the math on how it is cheaper in the long run to buy rims with the tires instead, but I just wasn't prepared to shell out $1200 for the whole package at once.

Mine is red with all black inside. I debated that versus the black/red, but thought I would like this better in the long run.
