According to www.Mazdausa.com, there is only one red color...velocity red. The different shades you saw are probably from the metalic flecks in the paint.

There are a few of us here in Spokane these days. I think I was the 2nd 8 owner in town and mngpao was, as far as I know the 1st owner in town. We have met up with a few of the guys from the Inland NW Rotary Club. I have also met up with some of the guys from the Seattle area for a drive around CDA Lake.

Just let me know when you want to meet and we can put something together.

I'll try to be there. I am remodeling the bathroom right now and my father in-law is coming to visit Saturday morning from Ogden, UT. It will be a mad dash for the clean up before he gets in town. If I have the time I will make it.

I really think we should plan another meet with the NW Rotary Club. They are a bunch of pretty bright peeps and know a lot about the rotaries. So Rich if you can put together something that would be great. Like I posted above I am pretty busy for a couple of weeks but after that I should be able to make it. Hope this comes together...
