i think the front bumper and side skirts look similar to the ms front and sides with the little gray pieces at the bottom.. might make all the MS kits look stock =[

Just me or did anyone else notice about 52 seconds in, the radio?
Wonder if that option will be something we can buy or if it is just Japan.
Might be better than the do it yourself corksport kit.

The music rocks! After the first couple of notes, I though an episode of Seinfeld was starting.

Nice, looks like the RX-8 has a upscale look to it now. The red Rx-8 shows off the lines and the profile of the RX-8 more. Like somebody mentioned in the above post, the front end looks like a MS front end, just upscaled a bit.

From far away , it almost look like a Porshe 997 coming down the road.

I also thought it was interesting the the nav will be in the current radio stack instead of on top of the dash.

I think it looks good.

The new wing looks like it goes better with the car.

thats the 09 r3 version. i dont like it because they got rid of the vent behind the front wheel and added some ricey looking marker piece.


when i was test driving the 08 last week the dealer left the room and i snaged a 2009 broshure book thing.
