Pink RX-8 ?? Yes or No?

so I'm thinking of getting the 8 repainted, either go with lightning yellow with pearl white accents.... or go hot ultra bright PINK!

I know awhile back in Japan, pink cars were a huge Fad and phase, but I'd thought a hot pink 8 would look nice, that color would only hi-lite the fine curves of the car.

anyways, tough guys can wear pink..and can also drive a pink car right? lol

how many of you would do it? just curious.

haha i love the idea, I say if you think it will look cool and sexy go for it. Now im sure the "chick appeal" factor might go down... =P...well Maybe not =] they will just want to drive it instead lol ;-)

both yellow and pink would be a rare find for the RX-8.

i've seen pink NSX, Rx-7, and porsches. so why not the 8? lol


i'll have to photoshop more pics, but the car definately needs a new paint job, too many rock chips, people keying the hood, tornado damage... etc..

I dont want the flat yellow, so i'll be adding white pearls to it, to make it brighter in appearance. or go outragously different and go hot pink! lol

to be honest, i saw a pink EVO on the road today and it was HOT looking, so i guess tha'ts what partially sparked this idea in the first place lol

it was also a dude driving, and he must've had over a dozen piercings on his face alone!

Don't do it. Every time I see a pink car on the road not only is it ugly as sin but it's always driven by a chick or some near-homeless person who couldn't afford anything else. I guarantee you that people will start questioning your sexuality if you intentionally change the color of your car to pink.

Purple is another story. But pink is always going to be a chick color.

If you do it, you will need to put one of those rainbow stickers on the back.

Manly men do not drive pink cars. It's just wrong.

I was thinking purple, but it's too close to that black cherry shinka.


Also, Manly men, dont drive Rx-8's either, they drive Rustangs or something with a V8. LOL

Pink RX8?

Are you gay? (not there is anything wrong with being gay).

No guy drives a pink rx8 unless they are gay.

LOL these gay comments are hilarious.

No, I am not gay, i have a girlfriend, we're planning on getting Married soon

and for being manly, i think being a kick boxer and in taekwondo would put an end to being a man, and i am confident in my sexuality..

if being bold and different will gain more points at the up coming hot import nights here. i think i'll try it out lol I have 3 months to put everything together and the paint job is the last thing on the list to really finalize everything.

dont get me wrong, the yellow would look classy and clean, but in the judges eye it might not be enough to catch their eye. i'm pretty sure they've seen all the yellows, reds, silver, black rx8's. and some obnoxiously crazy color scheme with tons of decals and stickers, but if it's the first solid color that they have never seen, it just might get their attention. I for one have not seen a lot of 8's in certain colors that i've been thinking. i.e Orange Sherbert, Candy Apple.. etc... oh well we'll see what I can come up with lol

LOL. i was reading up on that thread earlier.

dude, if gangsta *** CAM'RON can have a pink hummer, why can't you have a pink rx8? if you put a turbo in it, it'd be less girly.

I voted for yellow. However, if attention is what you want then pink is your color.

Go for it.
