well, i have some good news....I will be purchasing an 8 at the end of July! but now the hard part is to decide on which color to buy....
i love the black but its a mongrel to keep clean and scratches away..then i was conidering the red..then a friend told me they are prone to accidents because when the sun is setting, its hard to see coz the horizon becomes the same color as the car so people just drive in front of you! did anyone else know this? next i like the white but in the snow or blizzard its impossible to see..its the same color as the snow...then theres grey, but my mother always told me never to get a car the same color as the road....
so you can see there are many pros and cons. please help me out...not just tell me which you like but some actual usable feedback to help me evaluate. thanks

 

... silver is cursed. not red. red is hott.

but really... none of these are really taken into account because... unless another person on the road is driving drunk, you will still be seen.

 

Don't get silver. IT'S CURSED! You will get totaled, twice, in the same day...and then hailed on! Then Godzilla will come to life and step on it...with each foot!

OMG I just had to step away from the my PC

 

lightning yellow then or will drivers get confused when they see a yellow traffic light, get temporary blinded, and then not see ur car and drive into u also? <LOL>

 

come on now, lets be considerate of the silver owners, its been said or "theorized" that the silver is cursed in which many cases, there has been proof, but all in all each color looks hott.... whether you get the Velocity red, Brillant Black, Titanium grey, metallic silver, white pearl, winning blue, nordic green, or lighting yellow.... its an rx-8, its bound to look amazing... I just bought VR because its the color of a sports car

 

Winning Blue is where it's at.

Straight up.

 

Red is fastest.

 

But we won

 

Fly under the radar while looking good, get the Ti grey.

 

haha... this is turning into a poll thread about car color.

 

Nahhh just a "My _ _ _ _ is bigger than yours" lol

 

VRed > *

Yes, even the feminine 'Copper' purplish red.

 

Funny you should say red is hard to see since there was talk here that silver is the hardest color to see.

Really though no color is harder to see that it will cause a accident, only stupidity and not paying attention will cause that. No color is more prone.

That being said, silver does have some sorta of curse.

*looks outside*

Nope no godzilla yet.

*stands watch with Mothra*

 

i second this post!

 

That's stupid, you can only totaled it once technically speaking

 

The curse is stemed from jealousy of all the slick yet elegant sunlight silvers out there. All other RX-8 owners are cursing themselves (hence curse) for getting the wrong color.

 

Has to be one of the dumbest things I have ever heard.

 

I agree although I often worry when driving along Pacific Coast Highway. What if someone pulling out from a side street doesn't see me because my blue car might be invisible against the backdrop of the ocean?



Seriously, lotsa people believe red cars are more likely to get traffic citations. I don't know if there are statistics to prove this, or whether that might also be true in Japan.

 

I tell you it's all true!!! I probably will be squished by godzilla and total it 3 times in 1 minute if i get a silver one though....my current car(civic) is silver. I was thinking the same thing too Freddie, and blue is one colour the human eye can't focus on properly!! or at least a blue light. and then i was thinking of green! but there are lots of hedges and bushes on the median strips and sidewalks so i may have unwanted camouflague and be hit by a missile or something...can't have green.. so far im liking the red still...maybe if i turn my lights on before sunset people wont mistake my 8 for a cloud on the horizon. haha

 

 

Get The Silver, It's Not Cursed

 

Well having owned the Snowflake White Pearl and now own the Titanium ,,
I would recommend the Copper Red or the Phantom Blue.
Neither of these cars colors are normally in our field of vision as a common color.
Now if you get one of these colors everyone will see your car plain as day.
In there focus on your stunning color the will not be paying attention to where they are
going and swerve the opposite direction from your car.
Making your car the safest one on the road.
Bonus.

 

I really do think Silver is nice though. That would probably be the color I'd get if I didin't have Black. I would just be sure to pray before getting in!
