EstonRX,

That's the best picture I've seen of green thus far.

Had to add my green to the thread. I love its depth; direct sunlight actually seems to bring out a little blue sparkle in the nordic green mica. It's also nice owning one of the 5%ers on the road, as opposed to all the titaniums and silvers out there. Here's mine:

MadDashRX8 is a close second.

Yeah I like having a rare color too. Silver was my first choice though. Silver looks great on any car.

Green is rare, but half the time it looks black, so don't get too caught up as being special. If you wanted to be special you should have gotten yellow, nobody can mix that one up...

The more I see it, the more I like it. Green RX-8's somehow have a mystical aura around it....

Yes they do have a mystical aura! Unlike other colors on the road!
They are even better looking in person too!!

It's not that easy being green;
Having to spend each day the color of the leaves.
When I think it could be nicer being red, or yellow or gold...
or something much more colorful like that.

It's not easy being green.
It seems you blend in with so many other ord'nary things.
And people tend to pass you over 'cause you're
not standing out like flashy sparkles in the water
or stars in the sky.

But green's the color of Spring.
And green can be cool and friendly-like.
And green can be big like an ocean, or important like a mountain,
or tall like a tree.

When green is all there is to be
It could make you wonder why, but why wonder why?
Wonder, I am green and it'll do fine, it's beautiful!
And I think it's what I want to be.

The green looks classy. I haven't seen one in person yet either.

Nordic green is best in person, in bright sunlight.

I do love the color though. It changes so much in different lighting that I'm that much less likely to get tired of it after a few years. :D
hey estonrx, is it just me or why does your rx8 seem slanted to the right? just curious...

It's not even offered in Canada!

Even if it was, though, I wouldn't have got it - my Miata and my Audi allroad are already green. Three green cars would have been waaaay over the top!

Gordon

One more late bloomer

Here's a nice (I think) near twilight shot.

As everyone seems to agree, the changes that the paint makes when lighting alters are spectacular and keep it fresh.

Cheers,
SPF

Green with MS kit minus spoiler (Need for Speed's car in green... no graphics version of course). Man... I have no idea how I'm going to pick a color for my car... I loved Ti, but everyone had one. Silver caught my eye... blue is ok, but to get blue would make my 4th blue car in a row. Green is looking very classy...
