Exactly. Its a hobby for him. The $ has nothing to do with it, obviously. Its the visualization he had and he's fortunate enough to have the $ to make it a reality. Kudos to him and even MORE kudos for sticking with the 8 when he could have just conformed and bought an M3/Porsche like the other yuppies.

Being from the "other" side where $ IS a factor, its pretty neat to see WILD **** like this being done by somebody else who can afford it. I think it would look better a solid color and with black rims but hey, thats just my opinion and the car looks sick either way.

Holy $*&*&%^ Batman!! Lotta work I think you should definitely contact Racing Beat and see if they can make you a rotor shaped exhaust like they made for the Furai... heck, if you have the money, see if they'll make you a motor like they did for the Furai :D

IMO...the front bumper looks like ***...it's just too busy. The rear is the same...but for the rear I'm not sure if that's because of the paint scheme or what.

I think it would look way better in a solid color and a different front bumper for sure...the rear bumper would probably look fine if it was one solid color.

Everything else is awesome.

i would have to agree.you've done too much.

Man you should paint it WWP and add some nice chrome racing rims!! lol i think it would mellow out all the wow factor, but then again i like the wow factor too.

Does that single exhaust pipe reveal some kind of an **** fetish?

Really man, the car is cool, all he needs to complete it is a dual catback with folgeretti finishers.

Really impressive!
Incredibly ugly, garish and tasteless in almost every conceivable way, but an amazing job of fabrication and execution.
That's a lot of work to save 120 kilos.

How does a few exterior body parts make your rx8 "90%" carbon fiber? WTF?

It'll suck when you get into an accident.

I just can't imagine this sounding very good, is carbon fiber dense at all like mdf or? If it's strong yet elastic, doesn't that mean it's going to stretch when a harsh note hits? From your pictures those boxes look tiny, are they built to spec or? I'm not trying to bust your ***** or anything man, I just have a reeeeally hard time grasping how an enclosure made of plastic can sound as good as more traditional materials such as wood etc. What subs are those anyway? How much power is going to them? Any ideas on your db level or is it all just for looks anyway or?

if your car was gunmetal or black i would cry staring
but god damn so much cf how much does it weigh in lbs?
thats jsut amazing never seen so much cf

GrRx8MaZdA

Read better what you quote next time...I said the boxes weight....I dont have a problem with the weight cause i ll have power soon so why do you?

GrRx8MaZdA

One of the stupid comments i was reffering to...Can you really see the pics???The only thing painted is some small parts on the exterior and i can put whatever title i want...And it will definately suck more when YOU get into an accident cause me i will get a tone of money but you will get.....You know what..

GrRx8MaZdA

WTF if some of you are assh#les by nature why just bust my ***** in here...You dont like it?Save your stupid comments for yourselves..Many here have problems with their ego...If you had money to throw away select another option,i selected my car so hold the stupid comments for your rides...

I had patience to make this happen,money,vision whatever you call it and then i respected some of the guys here and show it off so stfu if you dont have something important to say

Hey man just let it go, its not worth getting all worked up for what people say about your ride. **** i learned this when people hated on my cause i painted my stock rims blue and that was all. But like most people are saying its just a opinion no need to get worked up about. I bet when you drive around people just keep starring and all you get is "GOOD" compliments. I know thats what i get cause my blue rims, and everyone here hated on them. At the end of the day its you who will enjoy it.

Bumble_Bee

I really loved your '07 Version...

GrRx8MaZdA

Exactly bro...They just dont respect that i m fu....ing happy that after 1 year of almost depression i took my car back and now some are trying to hit my nerves...And yeah the people here is crazy with the car in any age and gender...

fahrfegneugen

that is something else!

Camel8

As an acoustic engineer that statement hurts my brain, buuuut im not ripping on the work...

Very clean work, its all very custom and fits together well, you have a very unique car Im sure its a head turner!

I liked your rims. If my car were white i woulda loved to do something like that to brighten it up. Luckily PB is all the color i could ever want. Nothing would go with it either, its not blue, its not green... nothing matches except chrome or black.

I think he meant when you get into an accident it will suck because carbon is strong in the direction its molded in but not when it gets tensioned beyond a very limited range... anyone whos watched a race with carboned bodied race cars knows once carbon goes it really goes, its not a very stable material,,, the safety equipement in race cars(roll cages and impact zones) are really what keeps the cars safe... I think he meant its gonna suck because you will most likely be injured more seriously...
Anyway still eagerly awaiting any thoughts you have about my earlier proposition, in regards to a carbon roof panel w/ moonroof cutout...

dshiznit1489

You went WAY overboard, I dont like the paint job or the body kit. But props on the fab.

Ghadrack

Thanks for sharing, I still kinda hope to see some more detailed pictures of the front fenders. I hope all the negativity in the thread doesn't cause you to give up.

Liek several others have said, who cares how many say they don't like it, there are several of us that are glad you decided to share your project with us

I was just asking questions man, but whatever. your comments confirm what I thought anyway.

GrRx8MaZdA

Yes i know all these but check out on youtube about a video of a wrecked carbon rx8..The carbon parts have only small cuts and that car after flying around 10meters on the air,saved 4 people!!

The roof..Well you can buy it bro but you should find someone to install it..Its a proffesional job..He can have one for you easily
