Curious to know few more things. Would appreciate your thoughts. Please see the attached images. Stole it from the cardomain site. That to me is one of the best looking rx-8s that I have seen. But what color is that and why can't one get something like that in USA? Damn, what a beautiful car. This looks like Jap version and I don't think this is pacific blue that is an option in mazda 6. Also, can anyone identify the maker of the wheels in the last picture?

Great forum. I hope to attach pictures right the first time...

 

The red 8 has been posted before.

I think the concensus was the rims are made by Lorsiner (sp?)

 

The colour in the pics is Strato Blue.
It's actually not that nice looking in person......... but to each their own.

 

I think the rims are Lorsiner... Veilside carries some that are very similar also.

 

I believe I've seen the strato blue on mazda3's here in the US. It looks good, but there are better colors on the 8

 

Yes the blue is Strato Blue, the make the Mazda 3 in that color here and I think the 6. My mom and I both love that blue but they don't have th 8 here and they didn;t have a 3 with the options she wanted and she just didn't want to wait for one to come in, so she got a black 3 and I have a blue 8.

 

Found the wheels. $1500 a piece or so.
