Took a test drive in a Sport package this evening. Watch for my report in the RX-8 Discussion forum in half an hour or so.

Actually, we're looking for a more detailed review of the stereo, more than the limited reviews of the stereo that is amongst the overall reviews of the car.

Would someone measure something for me? In the trunk, under the rear parcel shelf, the amp (silver lookin' thing I believe) is located between the two rear speakers. What I am interested in is the distance between the two "beams" that the amp and speakers are tucked in between.

Okay, but you should still have the same two "beams" under the rear parcel shelf, and I'm actually interested in the distance between those two beams, please.

That's the spot, but actually, I'm looking for the horizontal measurement. Basically, I'm looking to see say, how big of an amp can be put in the same location as the BOSE amp.
