Yes, Ed, I am very jealous. The latest from Mazda in Cape Town is that the Rx-8 will arrive in September or October. I phone them nearly every week. In the mean time, I keep on revving my Alfa 156 V6.:)

Hi Ed,

No, they just stated it will be significantly less than the Audi TT, which retails at R 350k.

regards from Cape Town, 28 degrees Celsius in winter, been to Fish Hoek beach yesterday. :cool:

hi there

11 degrees, mid summer, raining.....you have no idea how much i want to go home right now...

You can pick up a TT for about £25K here, the Hi Power I ordered in Sunlight Silver goes for £22K. Interestingly a BMW 318i goes for £21K here. So there is really no contest in which one to choose here?

Enjoy the sun, the heat and of course the beach!
