I wish that blue was available instead of the winning blue.

I disagree. My opinion is the X2 blue is too dark for a sports car. Looks more like a "sedan" blue. I much prefer the more vibrant Winning Blue. Also don't care for the funky looking front grille, four spoke wheels, nor the rear wing of the X2 car.

What we REALLY need from that car is the Grey leather interior. It looks a million times better than the poopy tan color, and red is a little too loud for most people.

I would like the option of picking up the extra chrome pieces (front grill, side air grill, etc.). It would be great for Mazda to offer these as after-factory accessories. Looks like they would mount up with no problem.

I don't care for the wheels however, and they can keep the spoiler. I plan on picking up the European lip spooler. The lip spooler since it is an option for the Euro cars should be available in the Mazda's part catalog some point of time.

What i want most from the X-car is the springs. That car sits way better than the production model. Looks like a 30mm drop. Without doubt the car needs it.

They are being offered as accessories. See zoom44's accessory post. They would look good on a black model.

One of my close contacts with Mazda here in Houston (Gulf Coast Region) said atthe Mazda REvitUp event that the X-men stuff, (while people are asking for it) will not be an option, and never was in the plans to be one...

In his words "don't count on it" ...

sorry to disappont, we can all still dream. (or not)

I don't think it would be very hard for an aftermarket shop to make those extra items that are on the X-Men Rx-8. The rear wing being the exception.
