2005 Mazda RX-8 Shinka Edition

Year: 2005
Make: Mazda
Model: RX-8
Price: $7484
Mileage: 71000
Color: Black Cherry Micah
Private or Dealer Listing: Private Listing
Location (US State/Canada/Int): WA

This post is for a 2005 Mazda RX-8 Shinka Edition. The Shinkas were basically the R3 from the 1st series RX-8.

2005 was the first year for the Shinka and was a special edition for that model. The 2005's were the only year that the car was shipped with the Black Cherry Micah paint and Parchment interior color. Out of the total production of 2150 vehicles, 1357 were produced for North America market. This car is #99. Car is fully loaded with the exception of the navigation system that was garbage anyway.

The car has been well maintained and comes with many reliability enhancements. Oil change every 2000 miles. 71K on original motor. Motor is strong with no apparent loss of compression. Hot-starts are no problem. No revving for shut-down. Always starts with just a couple cranks.

Plus,

Epitroch OMP mod (feeds clean oil from can instead of crankcase). Only Idemitsu has been used.
Saiku-Michi Catch Can
BHR Ignition
Racing Beat dual resinated midpipe
HKS Hi-Power single exit exhaust
Koenig 18" rims with Falken tires
Eibach Springs
Tokico Shocks
Poly Motor Mounts
Dark Tints
Scan Gauge

Within last 10k miles,

New clutch
New clutch master cylinder with steel braided hose and speed bleed
Adjust PPF
Drain-fill transmission w/ redline synthetic
Drain-fill diff w/ redline synthetic

Within last 500 miles,

Oil change Castrol 10/30 w/ mazda filter
Air filter
Clutch bled/adjusted
Clean throttle body
Clean ESS
Clean MAF
Check SSV
Check VDI

Interior is immaculate and still smells new. Body has a couple small dents from the parking lot but never in a major collision. Needs a windshield due to rock damage (small chips and crack now appearing but is hidden well and can still be driven). Have a set of steel braided brake lines and speed bleeds to install also, just haven't gotten to it.

7484.88 takes it.

Images upon request

Will be taking the car to my insurance to get the dents fixed, as well as fix the windshield. After that, price goes to 10k. No lowballers. No joyrides. Will not sell this car to just anyone. Tell me its for your 18 year old kid and you'll get laughed at and dismissed instantly. This car will only go to the right person.
