Artic Silver Metallic (J5)
If only I could vote twice. I've seen a total of four artic silver ones. I think I've seen 3 different series 5 white ones, but some of them could have been the same one. seen one gold (pizza guy's trash car
), I saw a red s5 the other day. And then there's Rob's dark grey one.The white ones would be ahead if 2 of the silver one's weren't mine.

mine is red but the only other rx-7's i see r 1st gen. and they r all tan ( <------ they look retarted this color) and most of them have big dents in them
i've seen 1 3rd gen that looked tight with some awsome body work done to it , but the guy who owns it doesn't take care of it and got smoked by a civic (poor car i feel soory for it)

On my 88 GXL, It was originally dark blue. Blue Inside Blue outside. Know- It Is 1999 Mazda Miata Highlight Metallic Silver. The interior, being Black, came from a 90'Turbo II. I wish I snagged the Turbo components aswell!

well....my car USED to be the factory metallic gray (dont know its name...) but that paint job is like 10 years old and looks like a metalic primer with no clear coat....but the drivers side door is freshly painted that gray color WITH clear coat lol (if you're curious as to hear the story, PM me) it's getting painted soon...I'm thinking Obsidian Black (the Mercedes black) b/c I havent seen another black FC around this area 3 white verts, 1 gray, and alot that champagne color shown earlier.

Green! It's a bit darker than British Racing Green, and looks almost black at night.
Jason,
There you go, making me jealous of that Factory Turbo Vert of yours.
Now, it it has Tan Interior like the Lmt Ed. Miata that came out about the same time as your Vert. I'm going to have to fly over there and
you and steal that sweet Vert of yours.
By the way, ,my '88 Vert is Black with grey interior, my '91 Vert is Black on Black on Black.................
