Amoco Ultimate Ride Sweepstake
http://www.bp.com/genericarticle.do?...tentId=7034209
They teamed up with top tuner Jay Laub, to create the Amoco Ultimate® Ride – a one of a kind, custom built Mazda RX-8. The sweepstakes marks the first time Jay Laub has ever given away one of his latest creations. The stock model RX-8 has undergone a custom build-out – interior and exterior modifications, new audio/visual modifications, engine performance upgrades, new body kit and of course – Jay Laub’s signature paint scheme. Someone’s going to drive away a winner. Read this in one of the tuner magazines. Just thought the 8 community should know if not already. PS: sorry if repost. |
Thats cool that the RX-8 is considered an "Ultimate Ride", but the paint on that 8 is terrible.
|
seriously... it's pretty bad... i mean it matches with BP, but it'll be pretty hard for someone to want to keep the exterior paint job... (If I won, I'd probably end up parting it out)

whats he going to use for EM...
|
I saw this. It's ugly... but you'd get a free 8?
|
this was at the car show i went to over the weekend there was also a rx8 drag car.
Amoco car (repaint it and it wouldn't be to bad) http://memimage.cardomain.net/member...31_11_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member...31_12_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member...31_13_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member...31_17_full.jpg Drag car http://memimage.cardomain.net/member...31_14_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member...31_15_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member...31_16_full.jpg |
Free 8?
The" free 8" has a value of $72.030.00 placed on it. IRS will be a winner too.
|
that sucks... then it'll be like a new rx8 +$10k (which would cover the pettit sc and other mods...) I guess what you really win is the unique opportunity to purchase a modded car.
dunno if i'm into that cross-stitching interior yet, but I've never seen the front bumper b4... anybody kno wut it is? and are those the AME tracers that lazi has? |
^ I don't think those are AME tracers.. that body kit looks nice.. too bad for the automatic tranny

That's the Pettit Racing nose and splitter -

All federal, state and local taxes, insurance, registration, title fees and any other costs and expenses not listed herein as being provided related to the acceptance and use of vehicle are the sole responsibility of the winner.
Geez! Looks like whoever wins actually loses. Sweepstakes are such scams now days. Could win it and move out of the states. :sad: |
I just don't see how this thing could be worth 72k...
Taxes on that would be pretty huge... It'd still definitely be worth it, but it's kind of unfair that they're putting the value of that car at $72,000... I could have an 8 built that's a hell of a lot better than that for 72k. |
What is the gift tax? 25% ?
That is one ugly looking lime yellow RX8. Looks like a Volkswagon from the the Hippie days. |

Ultimate Rx8
Hey! I Won This Thing! I Dont Have It Yet, But It Should Be Here Next Week. I Have'nt Driven An Rx8 Yet, So I Don't Know What To Expect. I Don't Remember How To Drive An Automatic, But I 'll Read The Ownres Manual And Try To Figure It Out.

See, your post could be real, but you don't remember how to drive an automatic?
Do you need help putting your pants on in the morning? |
Im Kidding. My Son Has A 90 Crx-si Zc We Built Together, And A 90 240sx In Pieces. I'm An Old Fart Motor Head. Thats Why We Went To Nopi In 05 And 06. This Is The First Time I "posted", So Im New To This "internet" Thing. All The Comments On The Jay Laub Ultimate Rx8 Have Been Pretty Negative, And Im Unfamiliar With Rotaries In General, So I Wanted To Get Some Feedback On This Bright Green Rx8.
