We had one at our dealership here. Some lucky chap bought it. It's the first color choice of my husband, but we got impatient and did not want to order one. :p

It's nice though.

If I'd seen the green in person I likely would have ended up with that. It's gorgeous!

Lots of us Nordic's out there.
Favorite "all around color for sure (love black when clean but only lasts for 20 minutes in the great NW).
The green is so rich you can reach out and grab it (and metal flake from hell too) :D
Chap interior good interior color match
I see you are from Reno grnrx--must be a challenge driving with your current weather conditions down there?

Another Evergreen RX-8

Another Nordic Green from the Northwest (Seattle area.) Just picked it up yesterday and haven't had a chance to get a photo. Wondering if the Nordic Green choice is more popular up here in Evergreen Country. As someone else noted, it's definitely a color to see in person. Photos don't do justice to its multiple hues in different lighting conditions.

Other colors will be easier to keep clean, but at least it's not black.

BTW, my dealer indicated that the most popular special order for him has been the Nordic Green with Chapperal interior.

good to see all you green lovers out there...

different lighting conditions really have a cool effect on the color, there is always someone asking me what color it actually is, and the metalic flake just looks great in the sunshine...

here in Reno it is definately a challenge in the snow, but my girlfriend has an SUV, so my 8 stays nice and cozy in the garage

I have a few more pics I took in the fall when all the leaves are changing colors... they turned out pretty good, I'll upload those a little later....

At least it's a rare colour, that's all I have to say.

It is definitely rare. Saw two blacks this weekend, but have yet to see another green on the road since I got mine 2 and 1/2 months ago.

Yep, I just bought a green this weekend. The Mica Flakes on the Nordic Green RX-8 are insane.

I'm very happy to have a 'rare' color on an uncommon car.
