Relatively tame in comparison with most of the offerings here, but this is my steed -





Used every day, rain snow or shine

That was parked there before I did. Took it when I was at work.

Nope, came with the 8. Only for race events though, I'll stay undercover with stock wheels on the street. Silver on silver works for me.

Oh yeah, I should have known. Your NB Miata came with a 4 x 100 lug pattern.

She was birthed about 10 years ago at a Hiroshima hillside plant. It would be months later before I took delivery of this Sunlight Silver RX-8. She has been with me through the birth of my two daughters. Went on some cool road-trips (certified to carry a Peg-Perego Pramette stroller and 2 cases of wine!). Became a DD for a few years. She did life with us as a regular routine transport as needed. Hardly whining any more attention than my other conventional cars in the stable.

Today she sees life as a garage queen as I walk to work. She only comes out....

Thanks! I grabbed my wife's Sony NEX-something. Can't quite remember which lens. Maybe an EF85/1.8 or Zeiss 55/1.8. Whatever it was handy at the moment haha...

Reviving this thread. I bought silverEIGHT's old car, the guy that originally started this thread. It had 2 owners between he and I and was slightly neglected. Here it is in its current state:









Here's a few from when I picked it up:

You'll either love it or hate it, but this has been my baby for the last 2 years, recently took on a new look.
