I need to set up a shoot with my car -- a proper shoot -- all clean n' polished, in a suitable location, with a low sun angle.. sounds like I need to scout the A1A for locations.. the only way this car photographs well is when lit perfectly.
Unlike the picture below.. that's my shinka.

Did a check and seems to be 8 Shinka's in my area, I'll have to take a look at one. Too bad Navigation isn't an option on them. Have that in my Murano and I'm addicted. Yes please take some nice pics, I'd like to use that as my wallpaper.
Is the leather the same as in the regular 8's but just a different color or is there a difference in the quality?

black cherry
here's a couple of photos I came across that are pretty close to what the black cherry looks like in good sunlight with the naked eye....its very difficult to get the exact light and angle to pick it up without getting glare....for me that is :D

Calling all Shinkas! Check out the red/blue combo footwell lighting near the bottom of this thread posted by Rotary Rasp. I think it will go well with the black cherry color. I think I will try it.

Hi, here is my aussie titanium grey shinka. We dont call them shinkas here. They are known only as 'limited editions' in OZ. We only have 110 in the country. 55 titanium grey and 55 'radiant ebony' which is the same colour as your black cherry. Interior is the same as well as all the features. I got mine in april 05 and lovin it!! (Sorry if the pictures dont show, Im new at this! - ill keep working on it)

I think it's silly that some 8 owners are not mature enough to respect other 8 owners. But hey, it's nothing to sweat, just look back to my first paragraph.. I LOVE MY CAR!! :D

I agree, like a certificate to show limited status. :p

Hey Wedge
I'll see if I can find something appropriate for the shinka....it will have to be extra special....maybe publisher would have something....
PS....did you know that someone on the aussie form thinks that shinka owners are wusses!!! the audacity!!!!
