I'm hoping Fujimi has designed the kit like most of their new models, w/separate bumpers....then we might not have to scratchbuild the Mazdaspeed version or buy it from SAS...that maybe, just maybe...Fujimi will offer the Mazdaspeed version next...

I guess one way or another many of us will have Mazdaspeed RX8's before too long!

It doesn't look like it'd be too hard to build off of the stock bumpers and such actually, just open up the vents more, putty some bits up... We'll see... Be interesting to see what people come up with

Talking Fujimi RX-8 Finally Released at HLJ

Well everyone, the new RX-8 is finally in at HLJ, but they are going on holiday from August 13 to August 18. I really want that kit, but from recent post HLJ has been either super slow or moderately expensive with ems. I am not going to spend that much on shipping for one kit. Can anyone reccomend some where better that ships to the U.S. fast & cheap that should have the RX-8 by now also.

How can you not like it? It's a sweet ride. It's no RX-7 though.

I just don't like the body styles and I don't really like Madza either.

This is the Mazdaspeed (factory performance division) version of the RX8. Hoping that Fujimi does this variation as well.
