Nope - this one is in Texas, as the replica MS body kit, carbon fiber oem hood, lambo doors - - and best of all - - is YELLOW!

There is a yellow one for sale on Ebay right now. 48,000 is the starting bid It looks stock from the outside. Just the basic appearance package, except that the rear badges were shaved and he replaced them with a "2.0" badge.

Guy says that the engine doesn't do too well in the Texas heat.

Yes, this would be my recommendation. We have been having AM fog every morning. If we can leave relatively close to 10:00, we should be able to get more "fog" shots.

He said "The 134a cant keep up with Texas heat." Refering to the A/C. He has it filled w/ R12 Freon. The good'ol stuff we use to get here in CA.
Also, "The only reason why i am selling this car is that i need the cash to finish a strip center that i own." WOW - A whole center for Strip Clubs, how do you decide?

And, the one on eBay looks to be the same one as the Super Street Magazine.

THAT'S IT!!!! The editor of the mag must have been sleeping on the job cause the outside shot next to the engine shot was of a different car - but that shot of the engine is the same one - and the guy was from texas. Its kind of nice to know it doens't runwell. Sour grapes and all.

ugh, i got up at 7:30am tried to get my *** out the door, but just too much stuff going wrong this am to head out at a reasonable time. (it's an hour drive, plus there was a sig alert on the 10 near the 210 junction.) so, just decided i wasn't going to try to rush like last time. i guess i just need to do more preparation the night before to make the trek next time. <sigh> i really wanted to go..

Too bad some of you couldnt make it, we had a nice cruise today. We had 12 total cars 11 mazdas 10 rotarys oh yeah and at the end of the day we had a late runner 8 show up. I think we were missing about 4-6 regulars or first timers.

Here something for Keith or Jesse or KC https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.p...6&page=2&pp=40

So Here is my first batch of 4 - Pic for the P5 people - Jesse's new ride with mods - and Erica on her 19's - a group shto befeor we left - our reflection train

There are mostly misc shots, so what does everyone else have!? I dont have too many pictures from today since i arrived slightly late and didnt have a co pilot but all in all thumbs up. I had a good time today i had to get back early and i did, i didnt want to spend to much on gas and that was well reasonable no incidents and plenty of fun. Thanks again everyone!

well it's done the new intake is in only took a couple of hrs. would have gone better if i had tried reading the directions. i do notice the sound when i hit the gas. regular driving is still pretty quiet. i hear more road noise when going slower. but one thing i do have to admit, it does feel quicker from the start.
