Didn't happen to say why it's rare did he? I don't think Mazda ever produced them that color and I'm pretty sure the tail isn't oem, so what else might he be talking about.

Suddenly in the mood for cheetos and tang.

I actually don't think that car is overrated at all. I don't like the rims what so ever. But the car was actually nice..

Darkest of night
With the moon shinin' bright
There's a set goin' strong
Lotta things goin' on
The man of the hour
Has an air of great power
The dudes have envied him for so long

Oooh, Superfly
You're gonna make your fortune by and by
But if you lose, don't ask no questions why
The only game you know is "Do or Die"
Ah-ha-ha

Hard to understand
What a hell of a man
This cat of the slum
Had a mind, wasn't dumb
But a weakness was shown
'Cause his hustle was wrong
His mind was his own
But the man lived alone

Oooh, Superfly
You're gonna make your fortune by and by
But if you lose, don't ask no questions why
The only game you know is "Do or Die"
Ah-ha-ha

The game he plays he plays for keeps
Hustlin' cards on ghetto streets
Tryin' ta get over
(That's what he tryin' to do, y'all)
Takin' all that he can take
Gamblin' with the odds of fate
Tryin' ta get over
Tryin' ta get over
Tryin' ta get over
Tryin' ta get over
Woo, Superfly

The aim of his role
Was to move a lot of blow
Ask him his dream
What does it mean
He wouldn't know
"Can't be like the rest"
Is the most he'll confess
But the time's running out
And there's no happiness

Oooh, Superfly
You're gonna make your fortune by and by
But if you lose, don't ask no questions why
The only game you know is "Do or Die"
Ah-ha-ha

Superfly
Superfly
Superfly
Superfly

"Tryin' ta get over... [9x]

hahaah nice alfy,,,
on a serious note though,,, there are few orange 8s from the factory they were released as a Prodrive Special Edition, sportier suspension setup a different wing, a chin spoiler and Prodrive wheels, nothing on this car appears to be of that nature other than the color...

Too bad water in the tail lights isn't "ULTRA RARE."

I don't think so. Here: http://www.autoblog.com/2006/05/08/m...prodrive-rx-8/

Mazda Motors UK unveiled Monday a limited edition RX-8 coupe for the U.K. market. Developed jointly with legendary motorsports company Prodrive, the Mazda Rx-8 PZ is an appearance and handling upgrade for the 230 hp RX-8.

According to Mazda, Prodrive was tasked with creating a more involving driving experience, with enhanced ride and handling. Unique PZ features include:

18-inch OZ Racing alloy wheels
Eibach springs, 60 percent stiffer than stock
Bilstein gas shocks
revised suspension geometry, with ride height reduced 15 mm
sport mirrors
grill inserts
rear spoiler
Prodrive and "PZ" badging

While Mazda hasn't released any road test figures for the RX-8 PZ, the cornering shots of the PZ "at speed" (as they say in the motoring press) after the jump show minimal body roll. Only 800 lucky U.K. drivers will get their hands on Prodrive's version of the RX-8, and no exports to other markets are planned. The MSRP for the PZ before taxes is 21,912 (about $40,614). The nicely done, if a little pricey, RX-8 PZ goes on sale July 1.

A slightly darker metallic orange might be ok, but not that monster.

And am I the only one who thinks it looks like that car is parked in some trailer park hell hole? WFT is going on around that thing?

Blue topped front porch FTMFW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
