Quick question, what does "shinka" mean?

 

"Evolution" or "transformation."

 

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.

A web search engine is your friend.

 

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"

 

But, you got shocks with a 2mm larger shaft, a foam filled frame members and a special color.

 

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".

 

Thanks you for the simple answer to a simple question.

 

Me too... I'd do it again! Although I'd trade the Sirius for OEM NAV in a minute!

 

shinka comes in more than just the "special color" now though.

 

Don't for get sand leather and Alcantara.
