i'd look better if it had a ms kit. but all rx8s look better with the ms kit.

i do agree it needs some more mods. its not my style, but i still think it looks nice.

The paint is something like $1500 a quart. Last I heard it was for sell.

Some badass wheels would make a world of difference with this car. Bit more of a drop too. Paint job is pretty sick though.

A gaziliion years ago, when this paint was popular... One of the main reasons I never liked the color was for the reason on this first pic... Depending on the angle, it would appear to have this crappy baby poop brown color I just couldn't stand!!

I almost had mine painted an orange chameleon but it was going to be free.
The guy we used to use to paint our cases was willing to do it so he I could pull him some more customers.
