Looks nice but it'll be hell going over speed bumps. No more lowered cars for me.

The car looks sharp. But what I don't like about these riced up cars is that the body kits make them look much faster than they actually are, although the handling may improve slightly. That's why I am keeping my car stock, until the performance can be enhanced. Just my opinion.

Along hotpot's line...I am a firm believer that a car should actually go fast, before it LOOKs like it will. haha Those are nice rims though.

By that reasoning, you don't belong in an 8........... get a Civic or something.

very nicely done, nice wheels too. I wonder if there are any multipiece wheels out there where the rivets don't show.

Is it just me or is that car really lowered? I like the front spoiler. I've been debating on the front end and not really wanting to put out the cash for the MS front because I dont think it looks ALOT better then the stock one with the appr. package lip on it (which is what I have) I do like the Autobahn one which is what Im leaning towards..... but the front lip on this car looks like its shouldnt be that much and easy to install and would hold me over until I want to get the Autobahn.

Oh yeah.... Audioslave, Havent seen a black 8 that clean? *cough *cough (check the thread for a certain 8 in Houston.... Oh I dont know who but someone has a pretty clean 8 there.

Nojooc....ROFLMAO! You go ahead and spend Daddy's money on the appearance mods, I will spend mine on speed. I mean if you want to spend 5k and still get outrun by SRT-4 Neon, go ahead.

I didnt say body mods were a waste of money for everyone(there are a bunch of body kits I really like)...I just said for my money I am waiting to actually make it go fast before I make it look like it will do Mach 2. According to nojooc, I should be in a Honda Civic for that comment...just my responce to a flamer....hahaha I guess according to nojooc noone can have a opnion different from him.................and they are still nice rims!

Hmm

Basically i love BLACK 8'S

and the one in this thread is damn nice. I dont think you can call it a true ricer car really... as its done to a very nice level (minus the alloys) IMO... (E.g it has no wing the size of a boeing 747 stuck to its ***, painted in bright orange)

... my point was that we dont know whats under that bonnet really? So theres no ground to stand on saying that it looks faster than it is... looking that good can simply be a sign of excellent handling, rather than speed too...

Peace :D :D

WTF?????

Daddy's money?

Before you go and start flaming people, I make my own money and am certain I earn more than you per annum.

BTW, you misunderstood my post:

READ WHAT YOU SAID AND THINK ABOUT MY REPLY!!!!!!

What I am saying is that the RX8 looks like a fast car, but doesn't quite have the speed to match its looks.

By your reasoning, you are driving the wrong car and should be buying something else not quite so 'fast' looking since the 8 really isnt.
