Calling all people who are unoriginal.

I am tired of seeing tons of the same car in any given thread and STOCK. At keast have an "all aftermarket colors" thread instead. I know you take pride in your car, but we've all seen what a stock car looks like and you aren't impressing anybody.

EDIT: Allow me to ellaborate on my original post. This mainly attacks the redundance of the forums such as:

Calling all Phantom Blue
Calling all Copper Red
Calling all Brilliant Black
Calling all Titanium Gray
Calling all Sunlight Silver
Calling all Whitewater Pearls
Calling all Lightning Yellow

I figured the "calling all" in my title would be enough.
I think some of you thought I was saying somehting in the sense of "a stock Rx-8 isn't impressive". It is, just not posted next to the other thousands of them on the site, or worse, an identical one.

Um thanks for that *******, at least it'd be something DIFFERENT. I guess you have the intelligence of the average 3 year old who sits there and plays peek-a-boo laughing in their ignorance as the family shoots a video to only have documentation of how much of a dumbass you are in the future. I can only see so many stock Rx-8s before it gets redundant. Show me something different for Christ's sake ( I know I'm on Rx-8 forums, but something modded would be nice)

I know this does not fall under the modded section that you are speaking of but noone has done what I have been working on in my ride.

By the way I owned a 91 GTU and regret the day I sold it.

If I was a troll I'd be saying "the Rx-8 sucks, 4 seats are stupid, there is no turbocharger, it's slow" etc. but I am simply hating the way you guys forum, not the car at all.

2. Personal attacks against other forum members will not be tolerated, nor will any type of "trolling" for a fight. This includes political attacks, slurs, or sneering at any viewpoint or political party.

4. Be respectful. This is harder to define, but will be moderated. An example would be disrespecting RX-8 owners who chose an automatic transmission over a manual, and "sneering" at them or acting like they're idiots for the choice they made. If a moderator believes you are being purposefully disrespectful to a fellow member, you will be notified. Bashing for the sake of bashing will not be tolerated.

I tell you what, I'd rather have all the stock 8s consolidated in those "Calling all [insert color]" threads than to have every single owner create their own thread to announce their stock cars.

87 turbo search around (with 27 posts you probabley havent) and post some ideas of what you are looking for. there are plenty of custom threads for the owners of the truely tricked out 8's and then ther are the calling all for the stock 8's. i think teh froum has broken down the catagories wonderfully and have found a lot of helpyul and cool pics.

good luck

Ok fine, then just delete this topic. The other webforums I'm in are with cars that are out of production so I didn't think about people posting everytime an Rx-8 is bought. My bad.
