Just wanna say hi to you guys. I officially became an 8 owner yesterday with a sport silver 07 with appearance package!!

I kept reading silently for the past month to learn as much of the 8 as possible, and now I just wanna speak it out and say thanks for everyone for all the valuable info on this forum.

The deal was 21.5K and the dealer was pretty easy to work with. But they had to drive the car from another dealer and thus put 100+ miles on it. Then I noticed this morning that there are some minor scratches on the front bumper and left door (since it was raining when I picked her up, and didnt notice:squint: ), the dealer said they would do their best to fix that and redetail it. Hopefully, they can remove those. Other than that, I am all happy and good to go. Oh, and my wife is okay too! :lol:

But it's still a base model.

Did you get an AT or MT?

Congrats. You got one hell of a touch down.

It's a MT!! I like to shift. It's such a joy to do that with our 8s :)

No mods planned yet, at least not during the break-in period.

Congrats and welcome. Now get out there and drive. You gotta eliminate that break-in period so you can do some real driving. :)

How did you get it for that price if you don't mind me asking.. Was there a big sale or something? I may try and check out the Mazda Dealership near me on Monday.

Ya, Im gonna get that zoom zoom sticker!! Thats a must. :)

The price includes the appearance package. No hid or dsc. I got my car off Fremont Mazda in the bay area. They went $500 below invoice plus a $3500 rebate. That's how the deal was made. Hope you find this helpful Fierdon. I think they still have a red with performance pkg, 6CD, rear spolier and a white (i forgot what the options are).
