I\'m sure I\'ve seen an MX5 with this livery at some car shows.

I just dont think it works on anything but the 787B.  Might get away with it on a flat square type car but not a cury mx5 or rx7.

Been looking at whether that paint scheme would work on an FD.  Don\'t think it\'s quite right on that pic below, but my photoshop skills aren\'t up to anything, so can\'t do a better pic.  I reckon it could work though on the right FD, big bodykit, wheels and nice GT spoiler - track styleeeee.

Might work on my wide-body but it\'s not the nicest of colour schemes IMO!
Having said that the RX-8s at brands looked alright.

The Spirit R wheels are built by BBS specially for Mazda, they sell new for under £500 each in Japan.

There\'s a guy in Guildford who\'s got an mx5 in those colours, I think Mazda did a limited run of mx5\'s like that. IMHO it doesnt look to good, but each to there own.
