Aww, I was expecting palm trees and sand! How can you take pics of your car in Hawaii and not have palm trees and sand?!!
Nice car, BTW!

Did mazda change the lights on the front of the 8 for 2006. The 4th pic looks more like a pissed off rabbit with the plate than it usually does.

i think that's the front license plate that's making you think that.

and i like the phantom blue. its a lot nicer looking in person (and those pics) than it looks on the mazda website.

It's too bad the color only looks like this in bright light. When it's dark or foggy out, all you see is this meek green. The last pic shows a little bit of the green that I'm talking about. This color is not my cup of tea, but it's nice to see that someone took shots of it in the proper lighting. At least now you know why it's called "phantom" blue.

Beautiful. Congratulations on having the courage to keep the orange corners and resist the politically correct clear corners. That beautiful deep blue works very well with the orange accent.
