If you're wondering why I call it "Hype-X8," it's because when I first saw it (GT3), I quickly fell in love and couldn't wait to see the production model. Mazda then teased us with images of the upcoming car, then Zoom-Zoom commercials with the intriguing Renesis Rotary mechanism, magazine reviews from Asia and Europe, and I' thinking "man, this was going to be my next car!" I even got the AUTOart model as soon as it came out!

Finally, after a few delays, lawsuits and recalls, the RX8 was out - looking great in the metal! - I opted not to get one because of a very disappointing test drive full of rear tire noise and crappy ride. At least, I kept the model...

... and here it is. AUTOart's Mazda RX8!!! :nicejob :nicejob :nicejob

..and on that bombshell, thanks for looking! :cheers

Either way, i'm waiting for stupid AUTOart to make that Mazdaspeed... WHERE IS IT? I don't want the 1/43...

A while ago this was the only model i really really wanted, then found a few but they wern't in Red like i wanted so i did what Ronan did, i had to settle for the Yellow one.

Fantastic, i can't stop opening those rear doors, brilliantly made :tongue
