The gearbox is amazing, handling is exceptional, the car is just plain exciting to drive. Had torque in my S4 and did not enjoy it as much as this. I love it. Here are some pics.

The wheels are polished. Hard to tell from the pics, sorry. They are not high polished with a chrome look but they are definitely shinier and glossier then the standards. Like it was said earlier, you have to see it in person to appreciate it. Everyone that sees it comments about how nice the color is. It also has a chromoscope effect. Looks deep red at sundown and candy apple red in sunlight. I freakin love it.

Just picked up my Copper Red Shinka tonight!
I'm really happy OEM Spoiler / Rotary Accent package to be added in a week or so.
I have more pics in my album HERE !

Copper Red rules! Got mine 3 weeks ago. Still debating if I should get a spoiler. Do these come with clear turn signals? Cuz mine is the standard orange. And there are different side view mirrors?

A spoiler on the 8 would be nice. If you have the appearance package than a spoiler would be needed to balance out the rear of the car.
Either ways great car
Post some pics of the 8 when you get a chance
