A nice and peaceful afternoon car shoot was met by the wrath of the rain gods but it did not deter both the owner of the mean-looking Mazda RX8 and us, the sgCarShooters, from capturing some blistering night shots. And we had a guest too.
His name is Raymond and her name is Lynnette. What is more then suitable for this sweet couple? The rear wheeled drive Mazda RX8. And yes, it is a very different coupe in many ways - a rotary engine - using spinning rotors rather than conventional cylinders, and also has the novelty of four doors, with the rear pair hinged at the back, allowing reasonably easy access to the surprisingly spacious rear seats. The 177kw of power and 211Nm of torque propel this car from 0-100 km/hr under 7 seconds.
While the rain beat mercilessly down, the RX8 seemed to get more alive with the wet conditions of the road. This is one car that never appear to get enough of what we have seen in the fast and furious movie.
One lucky man, one lucky car and one very lucky lady. We are sgCarShooters, signing out.
