Re: Show us an RX-8!
I've seen them around somewhere, I'm sure someone can point you in the right direction.

Re: Show us an RX-8!
Just washed EO54 in my usual way. Williams wheel cleaner, lime flavour snow foam, Screwfix No Nonsense Car Shampoo (don't mock! The reviews are great and it does the job at a decent price!) followed by a totally rubbish no rinse wax. Never use that product again. Streaks like Erika Roe - and if you understand that reference you're an old codger like me.
Edit: Just double checked the spelling of her surname in case some of our younger members want to search her on YouTube.

Re: Show us an RX-8!
Never really understood why everyone raves about the copper red evolve's colour as I have never really thought that highly of it - but oh boy that looks beautiful - love what you've done to it... Might just be because I haven't seen them in the flesh

Re: Show us an RX-8!
Yeah, the copper red is stunning up close, like many of the 8 colours, has an extra colour dimension that is very difficult to capture on camera.
Beefs car is a stunner.

Re: Show us an RX-8!
That Copper Red is lovely. I am not a fan of the Velocity Red (which I know to some is blasphemous) but I would happily drive round in that Copper Red.
