Wow, really nice, loving the wheels and the car colour.

Not sure about the Efini badge on the front though.

Wow a real Mazda fan!

I love the 8 - I don\'t know what you\'ve done to the front grills but it looks really clean and simple (much better without the front plate).

AMH,

It has the Mazdasport front end. Personally think it makes a night and day difference!

Martin,

Thank you! Your duece is cool too!

Quick question.. Do you know where I might be able to find a gas door for the RX-2? Seems like its a hard part to find these days.

Of all the things you have in america (not you personally although ive seen the collection of cars and engines!! :rollin :D  )

The Sunshine,
The Roads,
Value for money, (good for rotary ownership)
Beautiful House,
Beautiful Girls,
Population (good for meets)

i am really jealous of the fact you dont need a front number plate!! :rollin

ps. love the 8 was talking about buying one earlier after seeing Rixios on here.

You need to post more often...!

Well, I\'m jealous of your car shows (Top Gear and Fifth Gear)... Your Women (2 of my ex now lives in London)... Great Football games (not talking about US football)... And idiots not owning GUNS!

Some states here do require front plates and also VERY strict emission. Luckily, my BIBLE BELT state does not require either.

Man u got a 2, a 7 and an 8... And you got the 8 in yellow!!! That colour is SO hard to find. Spent 3 months looking for a yellow with no joy had to settle for blue...

Very nice collection:D Hope there are some good roads where you are, especially with all that cheap fuel :)
