Calling All Copper Red Shinkas !!
#329
maybe not clear,
I know Mazda limited production of the shinka to 1500 units for 06. but how many did they actually produce and of those, how many were copper Red ( vs other colors)

If anyone is interested, here's the build numbers in Excel format. Makes it alot easier to sort on the VIN and find your car.

Not true, 05 Shinkas Cherry Black, Copper Red was the true Shinka for 06 because that was the only year it was produced, but it came out in other "normal" colors in 06. My buddy has a black Shinka 06.

KWarner04- thanks for the information. I found my VIN!
I think AJ is right about the other colors available for the shinka's; which I still wonder how many copper reds are out there (of the 1,500 shinka's produced).
AJ- are you saying that the copper red was only available in 06 and not any other years?

^^ ET, That is exactly what AJ meant. The CR color available only in '06. As far as the color totals, If Mazda divided the four colors available to the Shinka in 06 evenly there are 375 per color.

Why thank you kind sir, but I don't know that I'm deserving.
The 'latest' on mine. I don't know if its good or bad but progress after 5 weeks.
I don't know about the other's but I'm justa cocky like that!

PRETTY RARE.... when you consider typical auto production numbers. hold onto your CR Shinka's

Etorone, yours was built the day before mine... A cool piece of info to have in the logistics of it all.
Of course mine is in the middle of its 4th repaint. 3 fender benders and hail damage.......She's not worth much to anyone but me, but thats' all I worry about.

maybe we can ultimently get a count of the CR's by member once every shinka posts his production number.

I downloaded the excel chart but am too lazy to look up my vin...
anyways
here's a quick on of my car first wash taken sometime early spring
Yea, i noticed that the top strake is off a bit. I had to take the Fender vent out to re-tighten the screws to straighten it out.
Think i want to change from Copper Red Strakes to Glossy Black Strakes not sure yet but i saw black strakes on a VR and they look pretty sharp so...

Finally got around to taking a few pics once I gave her a nice wash and put on her new shoes.
I like how the tree above reflected on the hood...
And a shot with the wheels....
