i actually have the mazda one ordered via the mazda3 color when i bought the car, it didnt work very well it annoys me when i look at them. saw some new chips resently and was looking for a better solution, the dr. colorchip looks like a good option.

thanks for suggesting it.

 

Some crappy cell phone pics from Bear Mountain, NY:





And the mandatory interior pic. Even though the Metropolitan Grey Mica is a great color, yet the interior is the best part of the 40th AE

 

looking Goood

 

Here's a bunch of new ones

 

Pico,

Your car is awesome. It was actually part of my inspiration to search and buy a 40th AE. Always enjoy looking at pics you have posted.

The clear corners look really good with the metropolitan gray mica. Need to get a pair of those

 

Thanks for the kind words
You should definitely do clear corners- cheap mod that modestly brings up the overall appearance

 

Hey pico! i love your car. Ill be joining part of the elite 40ae club this week. Were both from jersey (im from essex) so i hope to see you around! I used to own a S2 in white but...yeah i dont want to talk about that haha.

 

oh btw we have the same car practically....i have a manual though and stock rims. Same aero package and sunroof deflector. almost twins.

 

^ good luck with it!

 

The car has alittle over 35k miles, will i need to change my blistiens? I read somewhere that they should be changed every 30k miles

 

Clean ride Pico!!!!

 

^ Thanks brother.
3 1/2 years and 56K the car still is holding up great

 

what do you guys think about gold advan RGII's? im not sure how they look. I'd probably buy the rota boosts which virtually look the same and eventually swap to the real ones if i like them alot.

i photochopped them on a MGM real quick.

 

here she is after a wash,clay and wax.

 

has anyone figured out how to find out which # of 1000 rx8 you own? i tried emailing Mazda and have not got a response

 

I have a question I'm new to this site and recently acquired this model rx8. I love the car. I just have the intergrated iPod cord, it's having issues would anyone know where I can get another one? I'm stationed in nc and I'm back from deployment I want to make this car shine above all the others around. Help?!? Lol will post pics soon

 

 

 

i hope you didnt pay a premium for ruining the paint with that graphic ( oem metro gray makes it valuable..) or the non 40th anniversary rims ( makes it valuable) i hope you have red interior...

 

I agree, if that is a 40th Anniversary Edition you have ruined the exterior with that red whatever!
Who in their right mind would take a beautiful exclusive paint job and do THAT to it ? Again if that is a 40th Anniversary Edition, where are the great OEM wheels, another exclusive?

Everyone has the right to customize their car, but that boy-racer look spoils this car whether just a metro grey or 40th anniversary edition. Sorry, just my opinion.

 

wow, that's something I would never do to my car. IMHO, the red is way too overpowering, and the design of the stripes themselves is just odd.

Take them off!!!

Well, it could be a photoshop. The badge on the fender looks like the 40th AE badge, but there's like a triangle thing on top of it (hard to tell since the pic is not very good quality). Also, the wheels seem photoshopped as well.

 

Here's a couple of mine taken in October

Pico- what lowering springs do you have? Your car looks amazing.

 

^ Stance coilovers.

 

spotted a 40th today in union nj, anybody know the owner?




oh and here are some pics of me and my friends

 

It's a vinyl and was on the car when I bought it. I am going to keep it on now and I bought it for 16000 clear car fax and 20000 miles on it. The interior is red. :/ didn't have to bash my car guys was just looking for some advice.
