shift boot and center cup heat issue?
Hello fellow rx8 owners! I had a quick question which hopefully you S2 owners could answer for me. Just wanted to give you feed back on my car well I have a 2010 r3 with around 7000kms no issues to date.
My situation is when driving my 8 when its hot outside is it normal for the shift boot area to get hot and also were the center cup holders are it get a little hot as well. I just want to know if this is normal? or is this a major issue? and should I take it back to mazda for them to fix it?
Thanks ladies and gents hope to hear some responses!

Totally normal man. If you were Superman and had x-ray vision you would see that the tranny is basically right under it, hence the warmth.

I put my drinks in the back cup holders. Couple reasons. One from the heat in the front ones, and second because they get in the way for shifting. I keep hitting what ever is in the front cup holders with my arm. So, in the back they go.
