Hot dayum that looks good!!! Do the mirrors come like that now, or were they added on after you bought it?

Wow! What an awesome color. I think I might even like it more than the dark blue they have in Japan.

Finally a color close to orange! The mirrors look great also. I might have to consider a repaint or a trade-in

I'm not down with the mirrors.... especially when there's black plastic coming from it.

Wierd... i think it has something to do with the weather... what i saw at the showroom was some sort of a dark red with a little bit hint of purple... that pic posted was more of an orange hint... anyway, thanks though... do notice the "chromier" rims... :D sweet...

It's a type of chromoflare paint according to my wife who works at an automotive paint manufacturer. It's pretty expensive stuff. But yes, depending on the lighting conditions it changes color. My shinka goes anywhere from black to maroon to purple with gold highlights depending on the lighting.

That car is absolutely perfect, it has the lip spoiler, the cool side mirrors and even the rear fog light. I think I need to move across the pond and get one just like it. If I was getting an '06, I would definitely go for that red, but I love my VR and I agree about the interior comment, definitely will show more dirt.

Very nice, i bet the alcantara would look even better in person, the lip spoiler gives it an elegant look, perfect for a shinka

My God, thats how the 8 should have been when it first came out! I thought the exterior was sick, but the interior is just as nice.

I actually like it quite a bit. I think it is a great alternative to the standard black interior. Has quite a classy look. The exterior is just utterly beautiful. I don't think its girlie at all.
