^^ Pothole? If you mean the accident....heck no.
1. I hit an unmarked water main cover with the nose (construction company paid nearly $1k to replace all the plastic underpanels and front air dam)
2. This car has been in the build process since July 2004. I've just recently put it away for the winter.

Really looks nice. I guess I will just have to wait 10 months to see it in person. Absinth and pertty lights... probably a nice union!

You won't be in turbo or superstreet magazine for sure lol.
I would guess auto and sound?

just seems too pointless to me

How hard was it to get the computer setup in your car? I’ve always wanted to do that with a car that I own, it looks really great hooked up to the navigation screen.

I like the dash install and trunk install
the engine cover is cool too
I think you have the only 8 with no handles
looks clean
I would add a body kit and rims but thats just me

I'm sorry.But yeah, she's right, there's no way I could take a body kit. I'd be scraping the ground. As it is, with the new suspension, I'm an inch lower, and already the nose has been taken out by a stupid water main cover (when they cut down the road and leave the utility covers and manhole covers raised above the road, before new pavement.)
As for the shaved doors and body work, the waviness that you see is the treeline shadow behind the camera, not the bodywork. As anyone who attended the dragon this year can attest to, the body work is perfect, and there is absolutely no way you can tell. I'm 100% happy with the work and look.

You must have the heaviest and most dangerous RX8 in a lightning storm, by far…lol.
devoid...you are now known as:
"DA MAN"
Gosh, why don't you live here so you could give my 8 the devoid-lite version. Some questions...
How do you open the door? Finger print recognition type of stuff? (I don't need details as to not give away your cars protection)
Is your alarm tied into the PC? Do you even have an alarm (I hope so)?
Does your PC have a mouse and keyboard you are hiding?
Do your audio controls on your steering wheel still work?
(Since I think the RX8 "might" be my last car, since I love her so, I would love to put a screen like you did in the dash but I HATE to think I would lose my steering wheel audio controls)
Is it me or did you put either some sound deadening material on the floor of the car or is it for temperature (to keep the 8 as cool as you can since the rotary runs her hot)?
I live in FL and it gets HOT here, wouldn't your PC die from the heat inside of the car or trunk? I've gone into my car during the summer and seen 110-120's wouldn't that mess up all your electronics in the car?
Finally, can I rent you and would you work for some great Cuban/Puerto Rican food? LOL
I'm not into the lights that much (I grew up in Miami when that started and they had about a week lifespan before someone would steal them), but I have to say your 8 looks like a ULTRA NERDS DREAM car...lol.
NICE JOB!!!
By the way everyone...I think the glow in his engine bay is from a nuclear powered rotary engine he aint telling us about. You know the drill...he can tell us but he would have to kill us type of thing.
NICE JOB INDEED!!!

Really..."rice"? I thought "rice" was more like cheap NO PERFORMANCE parts with body kit's made by hand filled with gaps in the body work and a bad paint job to top it off?
