MS always subcontracts wheels to be produced by Racing Hart, Advan, or Ray's.

Damn, I was about to rip on the RX8 for being weak, but the styling kit definitely makes up for it though.

It's gotta be an expensive kit. I still like my 7 better.

I've heard from an extremely reliable source that this will not be all motor either. It will have some form of FI. But I was not told what kind or the specs.

Therefore I'm not getting one til this car comes out.

Peace, Rishie
