Grab the whole page using the 'PrintScreen' key, that puts it into the clipboard buffer. Find an application that will allow you to paste the clipboard into an image (Windows Paint or ideally IrfanView then crop the required bit of the page and save it as a jpg. PhotoShop was used to montage the various pictures above but that's optional. OK?
:D

Elara I think you ordered the green so you may like this one. Besides it gives another comparison of colors. I wish I could see the Titanium Grey and the Silver side by side...can anyone post a nice pic?
Nordic Green is in the right corner:

I had never looked seriously at Nordic Green before until I saw a similar color on a 3rd gen RX-7 on my way to work the other day. Damn that was a sweet looking machine. I have a feeling the Nordic will look amazing on 8.
Which RX8 colors do you think have been most over-looked? For me it has been Green and White.

yea to nordic green mica! personally i think the green will look darker . . . like the old '92 maxima i used to drive.
i'm sure someone else noticed that sliver of the chapparral interior with the nordic green? verrrry nice.
i like the black/red since it's a "sportier" look, but i kinda like the green/chapparral too because it is more sophisticated (and kinda fuddy-duddy).

For all you Nordic Green orders (Elara etc) I have just borrowed from my Dealer (UK) the Nordic Green Colour Swatch.
I have to say it's Dark (in normal light) but in the sunshine its Mica flecks which are bluey-purple shine through.
It is however much, much darker than I had imagined.
I am going to try and scan or photograph tonight and post on the European forum along with the Red, Titanium and Blue.
My Dealer received these today! AT LAST!
Cheers

Nordic green looks darker than that model.
In anything but full sun it looks close to black, in sun it realy comes alive, dark but sparkly.... a very sea/algea gree/blue. If I could park my 8 in sun all the time I'd go for the green , no questions. Dont get that much sun here in England though.
I liked the red swatch but a lot of photo's are making it look to light/pinkish. May play safe and go for titanium now.

I have seen a nordic green today.
That was in the showroom. And unfortunetly, the dealer was closed today.
The green color looks very very very good on the RX-8.
So those who ordered green, You do not need to worry. I think.
As everyone imagined, the color was close to black.
The rx-8 with the color seems very noble.
I think that is not close to Miata's green. I feel it is close to the green on Alfa.
If I had plenty of money, I would buy the green one for my collection
