I caught my first RX-8 commercial during a football game this afternoon.......It's great! The guy is giving his ride a big hug, and the sweeping doors hug him back!!! How cool!!!! Can't wait to see it again. Go Mazda advertising!:D

yeah someone posted the austrailian version on this site sometime ago, and it was just like the amercian advertisement. I like the american advertisement more, all though they are sorta similar besides the music, and the wheel bein on the other side.

That might stand out....a right side steering wheel in the US...any estimates on what it might cost to change that on mine?

I saw three different commercials last night during the Bears/Vikings game.
The first was just of the rotor spinning within the housing, they never showed the car, and at the end the kid whispers "Zoom...Zoom"
The second was again of the rotor spinning within the housing, then the car driving around a turn, the words "No Pistons" and "No B-Pillars" flashed on the screeen, they showed the car with the doors open from a side view looking into the cockpit, then it said "No Kidding"
The third was the aforementioned commercial of a man in a garage hugging a red RX-8 and the car hugging him back. Then his wife shows up and catches him in the moment.

I think they just mirrored one version for the other. If you compare the Australian ad with the American one side by side, it looks like they flipped it horizontally. I like the chick on the Australian version better, because the American one looks flipped :)
Ludicris was driving a blue rx8 in his new video "stand up"
