The Mazda RX8 is a great looking car as it stands, but modified to the extent that this car has been takes the car to another level. In fact, the owner or owners of this car are pretty lucky because not only has the Mazda been fitted out almost all of the goodies that you would ever wish for; it also has some serious sponsorship too by the looks of it.
Even though this car may come from 2004, it has the look of something much newer and definitely has a certain appeal with gunmetal grey as the main colour for the body, with accents of red and black picked up by the interior. Those Topspeed racing seats really do look the part in bright red.
The power is produced with the assistance of a Greddy Turbo and SP2 exhaust, to complete the look a set of twenty inch TSW Thruxton alloy wheels with a decent set of low profile Dunlop tyres keep the machine fixed firmly to the road, we hope!
