There was thread earlier comparing the normal 8 and the Shinka.

The differences (major and minor) is over 20 + (if I rememebr correctly).

I'm quite sure Mazda Japan will have lots more variation of the 8 on the pipeline! Just look at the RX7!

And the MX5 .... It's one of Mazda's marketing gimmics. That's how they can keep selling the same thing differently....

No one carry shinka here so u have to indent and subject to availability.
My advise is if u are going to order one, do it soon as it may just be sold out worldwide.

I only know that its 20 HP more (250HP) and interior (leather seats, speakers, carbon parts instead of plastics) is different.

Rim and tyre are the same as MM ones

Can't confirm but I believe that the Suspension and Brakes are the same as the Mazda motor ones.

Saw the 3rd Shinka 6MT at GR this morning. Nice colour, and love the rims. Interior was ok, looks better in the brochures.
