The Mazda RX-8 "SHINKA" Special Edition takes its name from the Japanese word meaning "evolution" or "transformation," and adds design style and performance to the highly successful sportscar.

It means "I overpaid for my RX8 to get sirius radio and a japanaese plaque on my door pillar even though I don't know what it means"

A color that has women walking up to your car saying "I want my hair that color" and has guys saying "that's the color I wanna paint the tank on my bike".
