Lightbulb Snowflake White Pearl-Type S

This is an article from a mag I picked up at Asahiya. A Snowflake White, Sports Package, Cloth, Nav. Same specs as I have except mine is Titanium. The model is included with my car as well :D .

I can read most of it, except some kanji is a little tough for me still. Maybe EAST MOON-san or Yuhki-san can translate for you guys. Enjoy!

I enjoyed seeing those pics. I really wanted my RX-8 in white! I wish they had made the color an option for the USA.

"Attention, please!" is English; "Lookee here, y'all!" would be American.

Yes it folds down into dash. Funny thing is I have like 3 other mags dedicated to the eight :D . Too much to scan for now.

One came with the Japanese Brochure which is VERY NICE! Show 4 models: Type S (mine) , Type E, RX-8 5MT, and RX-8 4AT. Another came with a DVD which is great too. Each mag cost less than 10 bucks. I can't believe the DVD one was only $7.

Hinges

The special hinges are standard along with struts, and are designed to ensure the boot lid is held a safe distance from the car body. Also, due to the small boot opening it prabably makes putting larger items in the boot a bit easier.
