/me owns a white 8!

...Of course I never see any others driving around my area. In the rare case that I see another 8 out here, its usually silver or ti.

I've had mine for about a year and a half, and the only other one I remember was a Mazdaspeed-enhanced one at a local dealership. Sticker: $43K.

No thanks.

White was available before 2005 but not in the USA. We got the white rx8 for the 05 model year and it replaced the yellow. I picked up my white exactly one year ago, and to this day, I have only seen one other white rx8 driving around near me and it was one time.

Actually thats Mazda. If you build an RX-8 on their website it actually is a $200 option. Still pretty dumb though...

I'd say Nordic Green is probably more rare than White.

People in this forum do in fact own white RX8s... even people in my own town, it's crazy.

I agree. Now if the Nordic Green and the White would have a baby, that would be a pretty sweet color.

I had an 04 Titanium rx8, I think it looks really good in that color but you see them everywhere. I now have an 05 Nordic Green with the Chapparel and black interior and it really looks sharp with that combination. The green looks really neat when clean and in the sun, on cloudy days it looks more like teal. I think it is all the different mica chips in the paint that makes it look different in different light.
