Just two days ago I acquired my first RX-8, a 2005 M/T with a very nice looking trim, fog lamps, all leather seats, and a bunch of options that make it seem like it's a Shinka Special edition.
A quick search of the site knowledge base, however, has revealed that the 2005 Shinka only came in one color--which is NOT the color of my car. Additionally, I have also read that this trim level and these options were not available for the 2005 model.
Ultimately I have no idea what I really have. it doesn't look like somebody tried to bolt on new bumpers and side skirts to make it look like a Shinka. It really does seem all original. A VIN search states that this car came from the factory as a base model and not a Shinka, and it also shows the car without the fancy bumpers and skirts. I'm sort of at a loss here.
Thanks guys, and for reference the car pretty much looks like this:
