It's not an R B it's an RB. The "ranking" for that year ('96) is Touring X (auto), RB, RB Bathust, and RS. No RZ was made that year.

Looks like a "series-8" version from 99-02.

The Titanium colour was standard on the "Type-SpiritR" from 02. (runout special)

However, since the dealer states its a 96 model (series-7) & the panels look like they have been fitted afterwards & painted (poor paintwork). I doubt if its actually a series-8 version. Not to mention there is no air bag on the passenger side (series-8 = standard airbag)

Dont think they can be imported from Japan to the USA though...........

Nice find Aaron, I heard a rumor that you were looking at the Mercedes dealership talking to a salesman about trading in your RX-8. Tell me you still have it!!
Anyway see you around.
