Not posting the VIN seems kind of shady to me (or is there a legitimate reason to keep the VIN private when you are trying to sell the car?
Cloth seats+ sunroof= RX-8 touring, NOT shinka guy needs to research his vehicle more (probably one of those people that sells used cars posing as the owners to avoid having to register himself as a used car dealer... evrything about the listing seems not quite right to me)
BUYER BEWARE

Sooo lazy . . .
He gives the following info at the BOTTOM of the page:
" First off this car has a ROTARY engine it has no cylinders, they did not give me that option above.
. . .
Note: Not completely 100% positive that this is a shinka model, i was told by a mazda employee that this is a race model car and therefore it would take longer for parts, so i'm assuming it is a shinka because i don't know of any other race models. "

I actually contacted this seller. I was nice, but I explained that the Shinka model first came out in '05 (not '04) and was in Black Cherry Only. I also explained that the Shinka is not a racing model, but rather an upgraded luxury/accents package with an upgraded suspension. Performance wise it is the same as any other RX-8 (AT or MT).
