Well I bought mine used and did not pay any premium
In fact I got it almost wholesale. Ya, the buyer/seller before me took the loss

Those that post negatively are just Shinka haters who wish they had one
but were to tight wad to buy one. I am happy with mine
06 Shinka copper red stick

It's like buying a top of the line 'stang instead of the basic one.
Ie, in American cars it would be a SS, super sport.

Different colored seats don't make it top of the line. But enjoy it all the same.

I'm not gonna say it's "better" than a GT or even a sport but for me the 06 CR shinka was too much too pass up. I hadn't even looked at another car to buy since 91 until I saw a BB 04 in a bose store. Then I saw a 05 shinka in pics and thought I love that interior. I couldn't get the 05 in time and when I was finally ready it was almost 07 time. Then I found out there wouldn't be any 07 shinka's so I scrambled for the 06. I don't regret it for a second. I've seen GTs and thought the interiors looked cheap compared to mine.

No, you don't get more HP or torque but you do get a more refined interior and a color I like more than the standards. To me that was worth paying the $100 more I paid over a GG of the same basic specs.
