Don't ask me why because I wasn't given permission to say but I think tomorrow will be a good day for some depending on their distance from the ports.

I agree......I got a feeling about tomorrow for some reason. The feeling is that my car will show up and I will be out of town from tomorrow right after work until Sunday and will have no time to even go look at it, let alone do all of the paperwork and drive it home.

Since I'm not available to go over to the dealership tomorrow.....it will inevitably show up.

I'm on vacation all next week though.....so it damn well better be here on Monday at the latest so I have time next week to get my windows tinted and to put about 50 coats of wax on it!!

...Man this has been some week.

In my area, the forum was off since this morning until now. Guess it just goes to sho you how much this forum means to a person.....when you can't get to it!!!!!


......There was no place to turn or ask or anything!

I sure hope tomorrow's the day; man that would be so sweet; me and my car - crusing everywhere.

Anybody got any new info???

Sure, it'll be tomorrow, just late enough that they can't be PDI'd until Monday. (gotta give the stock boys and salesmen long enough to test drive it) you guys can think whatever you want, Murphy was an optimist! it's not coming tomorrow, if it does, we still won't get it.

I too just got the forum back. I think nothing has changed. Mazda is just sitting around with their thumbs up their ass while us preorder customers just get more and more pissed. I am starting to think there is something wrong with the cars

Unsubstantiated: EPA issues, they need to reprogram the ECU.

One Very Large Dealer in Central Florida hopes to have the first deliveries Saturday. They will be issuing an email to all of their contacts. You will be able to come and see the cars, but the dealer prep work will not be done until Monday for delivery Monday.

Atleast they have promised to send an email broadcast when the truck(s) have arrived on their property, no matter what time or day they finally arrive.

Interestingly enough, this is what it took last time to get an "official" word from Mazda. The forum began to seriously discuss rumors of a recall at the ports and suddenly we got notified that it was only because of an inspection going on to ensure they were perfect.

At this point I've got to start believing the same way. There must be something WRONG with the cars or they'd come clean with what the heck is going on about the wait. So much for transparency.

Tell me about it QT80... I was about to go slap crazy! Thank God it has returned....

"Johnson, when are we going to get those RX-8's out to our dealers?"

"Well sir, we have to delay them a little, so we can claim them as '04 models, and Keeble in engineering came up with this great idea - August 13 is the birthday of the inventor, Felix Wankel, so marketing thought it would be really a blast to have the Grand Release scheduled for the 13th of August!"

"Johnson, it's fine thinking like this that has put Mazda where we are today!, I wouldn't be surprised if the 'bonus fairy' paid a visit to your year end check!"

The forum is back with a vengeance. Any one else notice a significant speed increase? I used to get stalls several time a night (wait 5 minutes and it would be back again). So far even with 123 users online not a single stall in 1 hour.:cool: What ever they did, thumbs up!:p

All of the donations finally paid off!

Yesterday, we said it would be tomorrow. Well, today is tomorrow and no cars! What? How could today be tomorow? Then wouldn't tomorrow be Saturday? Yes! Tomorrow is Saturday, but what happened to today?
Oh my God! I'm loosing it! My mind is going crazy! I don't know yesterday form tomorrow! What day is it anyway? Where's my car? i think I'm going do die...

Hey Bo are you dieing today or tommorrow

It's all a plot. First the cars being late, the forum going down etc. After all the cars are coming out of Hiroshima!

Seriously, some of you should be getting your RX's today, Sat. or Monday. Should have more info later this morning.

Ah the Buda speaks :) You know it is amazing what you can do with a little knowledge like who the president of MNAO is, how to check email addresses and a little creativity.

So Buda care to check my VIN and see if it is showing released?

WHAT???????????

1st appearace at the start of a weekend - sounds like the right thing to do - as opposed to, let's say, a Tuesday...

There I go thinking like Mazda's up to something here. I (usually) really don't think they are...I think...:confused:

I just called the dealer here on the Central Coast. No sign of rx-8's at all. He did say that some "cars came in yesterday. Something about the "ports" clearing up congestion.

Budaman, if you could please check my VIN to see if it is released, that'd be way cool.

......Oh, the receptionist says, "You're gonna call everyday?"

I'm excited about havin this thing.

.....it says so much about her frame of mind I guess.
