No the dark (Nordic) green and yellow were two of the original RX-8 colours but they were both discontinued in favour of colours like Strato Blue (the best one :Giggle )

Had greens and yellows on some of the meets I\'ve organised.

ok cheers for that. I thought the green ones were imports because the mazda dealer told my dad the only way to get one was to import. He ended up getting a dark blue one :D
