i got them from a guy in san fran. he had them left over and couldnt sell them because they were bronze. i think i paid $800 for the set (tires were a different story)


i dont know how good they would look on any other color but green but they have the same kind of sparkel to them like the green paint. i couldnt be happier with them.

Hey, I am glad to know you Greens! :D (grin)

I like the Nordic Green all right but, maybe, should have been lighter a bit, or a litttle bit yellowish green like old F1 Lotus IMO.(Miata had that green, I think)

The Nordic Green looks almost black from a distance or when dark. My carbon lips and side skirts are not painted, leave as carbon look. Made the contrast, some may don't like...

That is BSR from Mazda Accessory Service. May not be distributed in US. Visit the site, although written in Japanese. :o

Sorry for the late reply, was on vacation. Yea, originally from Maryland, now living in Philly for my 2nd year. Lots of 8s around here, not many greens though. When I say lots, I mean I've seen like 5 in the last three months.

Nice pics guys.
Green was my second choice. I got the black.
If Strato blue was available then, I would have gotten that though. I've always preferred dark colours on sports cars.

Hi All,

I just came across this thread and I want to join as a green owner. I love the green when it is clean. Back in the fall of 2003, when I had to decide which color to go with I first wanted to see them all to avoid making the wrong decision. To see a green, I had to wait an additional month after I had seen all the other colors. It was holding me up and could not place my order. It was a hard wait but I do not regret a minute of it. I was secretely hoping that it would be a nice color because I wanted to buy it for its anticipated rarity. When I finally first saw the green in the showroom, the decision was immediately made and my order was placed. The result is what I had hoped for: a rare color that I like so much.

Erik
