First 2-tone SA I have seen - tasteful color combo; she's a Beauty Wikid - works well with the Ducktail too-

I agree Stu, I've saw about three cars done in this style lately and it is sporty and attractive, especially with the wrap around spoiler. I kind of like it when the bottom color covers the rear side of the wing, but I like this one too! The silver and blue are naturals together. Nice ride!

Thanks for the props guys. 1st gens are far and few in my area, so I always enjoy the compliments and curious stares from people on the road. Car was originally that orange color. When we bought the car in 81, it was repainted all blue inside and out. Seems kinda fishy, but she runs good, looks good, and sounds good; no complaints.

Yup. I love it too.

It looks fast while it's not even moving. You can really see the sweeping lines alot better than on a one colour car.

Nice.

Any interior or engine shots? 1st gens are far and few inbetween just about everywhere anymore. It's always nice to see a neat example still spinning it's rotors.

If you still want to submit a picture or a few, send them to me ASAP. I won't turn them down.

Im talking with my old boss about printing tomorrow. If you got a 2009 calendar, it will be the same layout, paper stock, size, everything.

The only difference will be the obvious - dates and images!

There will be a total of 15 images used in the calendar if I remember correctly.

I will upload them to this website - http://theglogspot.com/gallery/2010_rx7_calendar - VERY shortly for everyones viewing and voting pleasure. I received a few stunning photos in high resolution I will most likely use. I'll post them up.

What people need to remember so they don't think anything bad: when I chose the pictures last year it was on image resolution, size and quality along with an overall nice photograph (dealing with shadows, lighting, etc)

We have nice submissions this year, and I look forward to updating this shortly after I talk to my printer. I hope price will be about the same.

All submissions are posted!!!!

All of the received submissions have been posted to the gallery for the 2010 Calendar!

http://theglogspot.com/gallery/2010_rx7_calendar

I will post in the next couple days about the printing information.

Some images have been preselected as they are stunning images.

If you have any input on which ones should be used, post them here!

I would like these out by mid-december in time for Christmas!

Quote is here!

The 2010 calendar is a definite GO!

I got the quote from my printer and its about where I was expecting it to be.

The price is going to be the same as last year, 15 plus ship, maybe even 14 plus shipping.

The pictures are being reviewed now, and I will post the first version of the calendar as soon as I can.

Thanks!
