Default Photo shoot: Turbo RX-8

Test shoot with my new flash setup.

Someone traded in a mint RX-8 with a Greddy turbo kit at my work. It was extremely fast (when the boost wasn't breaking up) and made a good subject for photos. However, it was throwing 8 codes and the turbo install was murder.

Don't like the stance or the wheels or the interior.

Pics look cool, though.
