It's pretty up close. It has that mica-type quality; I guess pearl is a good description. o/w, it's not a stand-out color for the car. I wasn't impressed. I think more contrast like black or gunmetal wheels would help.
Got no pics for you, though!

I've always wanted a white sportscar..... kinda regretted not getting my Type R in white and was looking forward to it in the 8, but sadly not available here in Australia.

Up close the white Rx-8 looks pretty nasty, the tail lights and all the black plastic pieces look pretty fugly. I would rather have a yellow Rx-8 for some reason it looks better than the white one to me.

Equis- i agree, yellow looks much better with the lighting system. Somehow the white just doesn't make it.

I am sure Mazda Australia knows what a white RX-8 looks like.

Interesting how many don't seem to like the white. Personally I love it!

We bought a titanium car and our top two choices were the titanium or the red. Of course I hadn't yet seen the white then. That's what I would have gone for, but my wife probably would have overruled me.....

9100rpm and I may not have agreed on much thus far, but I think the white 8 is absolutely stunning, best color IMO.

I've got a Winning Blue, but would swap it at a drop of a hat for a white one if it was available over here.

I usually buy black cars all the time,my RX8 is black if I had to chose a color again I would get a Ti Grey. I guess I don't like white cars they look really plain, but that is why there are more colors than oneto choose from for diffrent likes.

We agree on many things....RX-8s for one important thing.
My son who hates RX-8 and thinks they are for gays, has just quoted to me that the RX-8 is only second to the Audi TT as the most gay car ever produced. I may be lots of things but I am strictly hetro, not that there's ".... anything wrong with that "(Seinfeld 1992).

It must be my sense of style but I like TTs as well.....9100RPM (and we don't have white TTs either!)

Icemastr,
Here are some pics of my 2005 Snowflake White. You have to be up close to see the flakes. Like all metallic colors. Enjoy!!

Tell your son to stick every VW on that list before the Audi TT and the RX-8... oh and the Subaru Outback, but that's just lesbians
