It looks like someone's trying too hard. The interior of the RX-8 didn't deserve to be covered in felt.

I think he needs to detail the inside of his car. Everything looks blurry.

I've seen that car in some other pictures from the 04 Tokyo Auto Salon, anyone know what company's that is? In any case, that felt interior is ugly.

There's nothing wrong with felt/suede, its all in how you present it. That 8 might be a little overkill, but look at this "strange concept" from a few years back...the rx-evolve

what makes you think his engine only has a year left in it? I don't understand that.

I still feel bad for the j-spec folks that have to reach over that hand-brake to shift. Seems awkward.

I was at the mazda dealership and it was either the 3 or the 6 (or maybe both) that had the parking brake located next to the driver.
