Are there any news of an RX8 kit?

[Jay!]

RX-8 = Awesome. :coolguy:

After seeing the car in person, my first thought was, 'how many parts will they use in the kit for the taillights?' The engine bay is really very simple... It'd be no big deal at all to put an engine in the car... (it's so tiny! :o )

I was distracted by the girls and forgot to take pictures of the cars.

Actually, my digicam is not so good, so I still have to depend on my SLR for quality photos. I was thinking of selling a CD-ROM of it, but I don't know.
I have a picture of the films though. (LOL)


I have 10min presentation of Mazda with the RX8 on the turn table, but it's wmv (mpeg4) and the size is 36 meg.
Is there better compression scheme to use?

Maybe Divx?

Jeez That CD rom idea is not a bad one, i can imagine you've took lots of really useful pics for model projects.

zero. ...except some that I couldn't get away.
I just got a direct mail from Mazda Japan about their web page update. There're three movies, you can watch.

Mazda was also testing with the RX7 Spirit R concept.

I would love to see this car as a model, but I would love to see it more as a fully detailed model car (opening doors, bonnet, trunk...) if memory serves me correct, doesn't it have back doors that open towards the back?

[hirofkd]

Yes, it does.


I uploaded a movie, which I took at TAS 2003. It's the best compromise between the file size (16meg) and quality. (sorry, no mov for mac people)
