Production Numbers
I have read all sorts of different numbers for production of different 8s. Does anybody have accurate production figures for the following:
06 Shinka
08 40th Anniv Model
Thanks. Please provide a reference to confirm the number. I've heard there were 1100 08s then I heard 250. Want to know specifically.
Thanks

Only 1357 were made in the 2005 model year (though 2150 were scheduled, production never reached that amount)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mazda_RX-8
Shinka returned for 2006 as a production trim package, now available in Copper Red, Galaxy Grey, and Whitewater Pearl. Only 1500 were made in 2006.

Nope...I received the full production/serial # data file for the '06 Shinkas from a Mazda rep...I asked for it...and got it. On the list #1 shows a production date of 2-1-06...#1500 shows a production date of 4-21-06.
Does that answer your question adequately?

40th anniversary Edition
Only 1000 2008 40th Anniversary Editions were made for the U.S. market with the Metropolitan Grey Mica exterior, Cosmos red interior and special Bilstein suspension and badging. There were some white 40th Anniversary Editions made for the Japanese and European and Australian market with different interior coloring, and somewhat different content than the U.S. one, don't know how many. Maybe RX8 forum moderator and aussie Ash8 can fill in the numbers here .

Hopefully that's accurate numbers. I've heard so may different ones at this point. Heard at one point only 200 of those were made and that three was also 200 40th models produced in white. Didn't think it was true
