Here are a few more pics. I have had Coop for just over 6 months, 14,000 miles so far. I love it! I smile everyday I drive it.

Hey Dan,
Are you planning on stocking any of the other colors of the RB?
Thanks.

Love the grill. Did you do a super careful cutting job or is that aftermarket (since it looks like a new lower grill too)?

Wow! Now that I looked twice, that's the Aero kit, with a different grill?

It is indeed the hypersport aero kit, but I did not change it. Aparently the hypersport grills are different from the stock MCS r56 grills in looks and size also. From what I understand the stock r56 and the JCW grill won't fit on my hypersport areo kit.
Thanks none the less!

Edit: shouldn't say different in size b/c I'm pretty sure its the same size. Should say: "different in looks and 'fitment' from the stock r56 grill"

I'm really diggin' those Rota RBs, but wish they'd make them without the polished lip. In all silver or all white would be blingin'!

They also need to be TPMS compatible

Thanks, we love 'em. Alas, the lease is up on the RX8 next month. The choice of Miata or RX8 on winter days is no fun and at 18mpg average, it's not a very economical daily driver.

I love this interior. As a matter of fact I just ordered my MCS with the same color combos. How do you like the tuscan beige leather? I had been debating about it for a while because of all the upkeep that is needed. So many people say that it won't look good in a few years, but I'm careful enough with things that I won't mind giving the leather some TLC so that it stays looking good for years. I can't tell if you have a sunroof or not. If not, what persuaded you to not get it?

enjoy your great looking car!
