NICE!!! I love this thread already! subscribed!!! It have been trying to find R3 pictures on this forum, but it is extremely difficult, because most RX8's in this forum are S1 RX8's.

Thanks dude! Your VR R3 looks AMAZING!!! I am thinking about purchasing one in VR as well! I originally wanted it in Sparkling Black Mica, however there are only the VR and the Blue left. At first I felt like I was settling, but when I saw the VR fly by my car, while driving home, I realized how beautiful the VR actually looks in person!! But of course, I am assuming it has to be washed and glossed up in order to look that good :P

Cheers!

I always forget that the back windows pop out...Its probably for the best though because I would probably forget to close them.

brilliantblackrx8 04-19-2012 05:37 PM

Not a big fan of aftermarket wheels on R3's, but Piroxide's car is beautiful with the Ray's/RS3 combo. More pics of this car!

haha!! yeah man! Canada prices are EXPENSIVEEE!! :(

did you purchase your RX8 from the states?? Where do you recommend me going to purchase it? I heard that even if you purchase a car from the states, the fees I am charged when crossing the border again will even out to the pricing in Canada? Is that true??

^NICE! the R3 in Sparkling Black Mica is TRULYYY amazing!!! I feel like those pictures did no justice to the actual look of the colour though!! NICE! VR, or SBM?!! darn...!!! can't decide! >.<! All the colours for the R3 looks amazing!!

Crappy photo, but I was excited to see an R3 thread.

Hey brew, I purchased mine locally here in Vancouver...I have no idea where u could buy one I guess you could start by looking on craigslist, autotrader or even Dearships...I go no clue on the transfer fees if you buy it from the states but all I know is if you get the R3 from the states it had as different bumper style meaning the one in Canada has wiper spray on the bumper that sprays on the headlights and the US one doesnt. Just look around you could probably find some good used R3 left over or even some still on the lots just have to look around.

I got a white R3 rarest one to find on the roads here in Canada and or US

MissAnneThropy 04-20-2012 07:43 PM

She's gorgeous! I really wanted a black R3, but I could only find ONE R3 in all of GA, and it was blue. I might just ask for a paint job for my birthday this year! :)

Sato Tatsuya 04-20-2012 10:48 PM

^That stock R3 headlight does not look very bright at all! How do you find the visibility at night with the stock headlight bulbs??

They're hids. They're pretty bright. Like those annoying cars with the really bright lights on the road at night. R3s have those.

I really like it. It goes well with the black and red Recaros. I just lucked out I guess, considering I initially was looking at an '06 RX-8. The '06 turned out to be an auto, and I told the salesman to put it away, as I wasn't even going to test drive it. So he put it away and comes back with "hey, this just got traded in..." [so it wasn't listed]. And the rest, as they say, is history.

The headlights are pretty bright. It's just washed-out a bit in that picture because the car is sitting under an even brighter street light, plus my phone's flash.

Not bad.

Where did you source the springs and spacers from? How did it alter the handling?

I worry about dropping the car and spacing the wheels because the handling is exactly perfect for me the way it is. I worry about upsetting the balance. Although your drop is exactly where I'd want mine to be, since I don't want a car that will have me going 1 mph over speedbumps.

thanks guys! that clarified a lot of stuff for me! I knew it was HIDs as well, but in the picture it just didn't look that bright; however, I guess the location, the time of the day, and the method of capturing that picture really affected how the light appears to look.

Cheers!!

And this thread ROCKS!!! Sooo many awesome pictures!!! *droolzzzzzz*!!
