Color choices from Japanese survey

These are the color choices from the Mazda Japan RX-8 survey, granted, just a bunch of colorized images, but selection of colors is interesting.

I believe red is your only option.

Talking Yes Lawd!!!!

Thank you all automotive goods for offering Silver ext. with red int. Because that's the combination that I will be getting. My second choice would be gun metal with red int. or beige.



Thankkkkk Youuuuuuuuuuu!:D

I want to keep a somewhat low profile, so Silver is my first choice, but otherwise I like the orange. I used to have a orange 69 VW Karman Ghia!

I'm thinking I'd like the orange. Easy for little old men with hats to see, and hopefully avoid. (but also easy for law enforcement officers to see) Looks a little like a limited edition Miata color I saw a few months ago.

Could the the more recent info showing color samples on half models of the car (Auto Gallery or whatever it was) be more accurate though? (no orange!)
