Accessories available in Japan
 

TONS of Accessories and options available in Japan - why don't we get any of the good toys? I have about 66 images, I don't know how many I can upload at a time I'll upload some I thought were interesting. Ok I can only upload 1 at a time.

"RX-8 Embedded" shifter.

This is nifty too. Looks to me like it's remote keyless handsfree entry. Friend of mine has a Mercedes SL55 and he carries a card in his wallet - when he gets near the car, it unlocks his doors. he has just to push a start button when he gets in the car. pretty sweet.

If it's a handsfree entry system why does it have lock/unlock buttons on the card?

My friend's has lock and unlock buttons on his as well with his Mercedes. he has to be near the car with the card in his pocket, he touches the car and it senses the card+touch and opens up the car.

I suppose if you are not within range of the car as you have to touch it (at least on the Mercedes version I've seen) to open the doors you can unlock and lock it without actually touching the vehicle.

So in neither case is it 'hands free' then?!

yeah i guess it's hands "reqired", but you don't need a key to start the car (the mercedes version at least), so you'd most likely require the nifty illuminated start button! the mercedes start button is in the center of the shifter knob...

Cute! :)

oh yeah, and I know some people were asking about the Rotary Accent Package...

Keep posting the PICS!!!! I love the start button

ok, I'll keep posting... some of this stuff I don't know what exactly it is, so you'll have to make deductions on your own, and I haven't found a way to get all of these images into one image, so forgive me if I'm posting like crazy, but this is just cool stuff...
