Shinka's in Europe?
 

Hi,

I live in the Netherlands, and I own an imported US Shinka.

Now i'm 99% sure it's the only one in NL, but I was wondering if there were more Shinka's in Europe?

Anybody knows this?

well, theres good chance your the only one now who has imported one.... BUT in Oct 2009 i will be in Chievres, Belgium with mine :)

Really?

Are you gonna move there? Or will you go back eventually?

Would be nice to meet up sometime with some others ;)

There's been a few special edition models in England that were essentialy the same as a Shinka, but without the Shinka name. I remember the Evolve, which was offered in either Copper Red or Phantom Blue. Here's a pic:

There was also a Nemesis special edition but I think it only came in AT.

yep :)

i'm stationed in hawaii now, by september 10th i'll be in honduras(for one year) without the car :(

then come september/october of 2009 i'll be moving to Chievres, Belgium for 4 years :) with the car!

I heard from someone that you're required to have headlight cleaners with xenon in Belgium...

Just to warn you ;)

I'm in Belgium now, I wont be here forever, 2-3 years probably. Don't have to have headlight cleaners here, and I have the xenon HIDs already. Do have to have the red rear fog lamp, which i have. And I will have to get a cat to pass inspection in January

Ok great :)

Would be nice to meet up with you in the Netherlands sometime :)

btw, maybe it's a good idea to visit the Dutch RX8 club website Belgium doesn't have one.

hehehe, i wish i was as talented as most europeans i have met the last few days... I only speak one lousy language.. i have to start learning

That doesn't really matter, most Dutch and Belgium people speak English as well ;)

Yes, I am beginning to see this :)
