Thanks for the different angles ... I drive by it every morning I go to work. It's so impressive in person that I had to borrow the company's digital camera (mine is broken) and post it here ...

The same billboard is on Route 3 east in New Jersey, just before the Lincoln Tunnel.

well, it's good to see and hear that the RX-8 is "visually" getting around - I wonder if Mazda is spending any kind of money on the much smaller local markets toward outdoor advertising, or just counting on national TV commercials to spread the word that it will soon be here?

Coming home today I saw the opposite side of the sign I described yesterday (on route 3 west just past the lincoln tunnel) and it showed a side profile with all the doors open saying:

"Try and Blow these Doors Off"

Also saw the previous billboard on a phone booth in Times Square.

I guess the marketing blitz is starting (and the RX8s will be here soon).

Sadly, I drove by (on my way to work) this morning - and it was taken down with nothing else to replace it. ... which I don't mind to much, because that wall has a nice mural ...

But I do miss seeing that huge Godzilla sized RX-8

:(
