Best colors

In the flesh, the RX-8 looks its best in mid-tones or colors. They accentuate the beautiful lines and curves better than the very light and/or very dark colors.

I don't particularly like the color green. But somehow in that setting it looks wicked. Like a praying mantis that blends with its surroundings when stalking.

That appears to be true -- but I'm still leaning toward black, but yes, having a dark color really does lose all details of the front end (at least what I can see from these Photoshop images) -- maybe some after-market supplier could provide a different chrome or colored grill inserts?

Racing Colour Schemes

While we were down, I experimented with some race car paint schemes. Try Red and Blue.

hey Styjan, the other day this thread asked what should the new rx-7 look like and i was wondering if you still had some pics from your "guess what i did to this pic" thread. i think those were pretty good photochops of what the next 7 could look like. they dont appear in the original thread anymore.

Looks like one of those multi-flavor Sno-Cones.
